What on earth is happening with the American railway system?

5GW. The enemy taking advantage of the decrepit condition of our infrastructure, I would guess.

The main rail lines are in good condition. Lots of money has been spent on the busy corridors. Suddenly all we hear about is train wrecks (though a daily comprehensive tally of the truck wrecks across the US might be just as dismal in total).

Never let a crisis go to waste, and if there is no crisis, create one. We are already hearing calls to nationalize the railways. Hey, it worked out great for the UK, right?

Right?
