Stop all crude oil train transport in the United States immediately.

Created by L.M. on February 18, 2015

The (Bakken) crude oil trains that have derailed and exploded in numerous locations throughout the US must be stopped immediately. This last explosion in W. Virginia had the new model tank cars that were supposed to be safer, but obviously that is not the case or the answer for safe transport of this volatile and explosive material. These trains are dangerous and once they explode there is no way for first responders to put out the fire. These trains go through some of the most populated areas of the United States and must be stopped. It is just a matter of time when one will explode in a highly populated area and many could get killed or injured and thousands of homes and businesses would be demolished. Stop these trains now!
