BNSF is the only company that allows their trains to go over 60.

They kill alot of people and have alot of accidents every year though,

UP goes that fast too, I'm sure there are others also. As far as having a lot of accidents and killing alot of people it's kinda hard not to do even statisticly speaking when you're one of the biggest railroads in the world. Not that that's great or something, just happens. I was just asking cuz I graduated from Harvey and went to school with half the people that work there or in Enderlin. Graduated with Eric Johnson, Allen Schlicting, Jeremy Thornson, Mike Fiest, and Waylon Zuther.

Well if people would quit laying on the tracks that may solve most of the problems.

but if we wanted im sure we could go 70-80 with a full train.....just a engine itself would go faster than that im guesing
