Start spreading the poop: New Yorkers may get stuck with 2.4 million pounds per day of their own excrement if a national rail strike occurs.
Normally, the trains that transport human waste from New York City wind up in landfills across the South, but the tentative deal that the Biden administration brokered between the rail workers and railroad companies came asunder on Monday.
“We are working closely with our contracted vendors and are prepared to do all that we can in a worst-case scenario, but let me be clear: a prolonged disruption of the rail network for trash removal represents a very real threat to public health and safety in the City of New York,” New York City Sanitation Commissioner Jessica Tisch told The Daily Beast.

"The excrement is transported in freight containers filled with “biosolids,” a dehydrated, treated version of the substance. In the past, New York City actually sent the excrement into the ocean, but in the past thirty years, they have sent it to landfills.
In April 2018, a train holding millions of pounds of excrement from New York got stuck in Parrish, Alabama, with a population 982."
Fertilizer.
The straight poop.
Maybe in the future:
“Thus the train was bound for the Big Sky Environmental landfill,’
Wow, it is a rare day indeed that I support a strike
No railroad, no fuel, no food, no goods
I’m good for awhile. People in big cities will be hosed.
They could use it for performance art in New York.
Great. Not only do the Yankees bus their homeless down here, they ship us their poop, too! Why do we keep taking their cr.. umm, excrement?
Silver lining....
Something new to learn today... that I really wish I hadn’t since I live almost within sight of the rail bridge that crosses the Tenneesee River here in N. Alabama.
Bring on the strike!
spread it around central park.
The “no food” will make less of something else.

You’re stuck in the past, man. It’s 2022. They should use it to generate green energy.
I’ll leave it to others to figure out how. I’m just the big ideas guy.
THE CITY OF DUNG
After the sewage leaves the settling tank in the primary stage, it is pumped into an aeration tank, where it is mixed with air and sludge loaded with bacteria and allowed to remain for several hours. During this time, the bacteria break down the organic matter into harmless by-products.
The harmless water is either re-cycled into the system for golf courses and fountains or other non-drinking facilities or pumped out to sea. What is the problem with New York, other than bad politicians?
“Whats brown and sounds like a bell?.....DUNG!”-Monty Python.
wow! the southern states will be happy to learn that NY ships its crap to them
Sounds appropriate since New York is a shithole.
Let them burn it for heat.
Call it bio-coal.
