Despite 2001 and 2012 being post revolution there is nothing that can convince me that in those years accidents were only 20% of what they are now.<br />Bit like the road fatalities statistics released a few months ago where deaths have suddenly dropped 25% on one year. Highly unlikely.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-36659896379371049642019-03-19T01:04:00.736+02:002019-03-19T01:04:00.736+02:00Totally agree. Totally agree.

Construction is to erect something on empty piece of land according to plans and specifications. Operation has to deal with constrains of existing equipment, procedures, culture and manpower. <br /><br />Train accidents are not resulting from curse. Lousy operation infested with errors yields a higher probability of accidents. Efficient train systems have a lower probability. There must be measures of quality not only a lucky absence of tragedies. Accidents will not vanish by a military order yet by measured improved quality of service.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
