So, the Biden influenced pro labor solution is to require three conductors for each train and one car with a feather bed for the conductors to travel in.

I don’t understand. I live in a community, Grays Harbor, Washington that still utilizes freight trains to move logs, grain, household trash, etc. I have not seen a train with a caboose for 20 years. Trains here only have engines and freight cars. Nowadays what does a conductor do? And where do they do it?

“The Surface Transportation Board is an independent federal agency that is charged with the economic regulation of various modes of surface transportation, primarily freight rail. The STB exercises its statutory authority and resolves disputes in support of an efficient, competitive, and economically viable surface transportation network that meets the needs of its users.”

Methinks we have a candidate for sacrifice at the altar of smaller government.
