Get Started:
After a New York Times article published in July 2004 said Union Pacific fails to properly report fatal accidents along its tracks, the railroad company said it would develop a camera system. The digital cameras and microphones attached to its locomotives would record each trip and any accident that might happen along the way.
Union Pacific will be adding its name to the growing list of railroad companies implementing the use of video cameras, which have been used to challenge lawsuits. Norfolk Southern has had video cameras since 1999 and Burlington Northern Santa Fe, as well as other companies, has recently announced its plans to also install video cameras.
The installation of cameras on 6,700 Union Pacific locomotives that cross over roads as they pull trains between cities is projected to be completed by the end of 2005.
