What’s that? About 5 total in North America over the last month?

How many pipelines have “derailed” in the same time period.

only one pipeline was derailed last month, it was the Keystone and it was derailed by presidential veto.

Funny how the media carries these derailment stories more than other ones.

Of course, if they really are more frequent than others, one could also suspect sabotage. Energy prices are not “necessarily skyrocket(ing)” but going the other direction because of what these trains carry, never mind the pipeline that can be so casually vetoed.

But more importantly, spills due to pipeline breaks are limited due to shutoff valves that slam shut as soon as a break is detected.

Yes, seems to be a larger than normal number of train accidents lately.
