First it sits off shore forever. When it finally gets put on rail, it gets looted. In broad daylight. First the stores, now this.
No worries though. The LA Sheriff says he will put someone on it.
They need to go back to the good old days when train detectives/railroad police dealt with this kind of sh@@. If the would be thieves made it to jail they were considered lucky, no matter how bad they were beat about the head and shoulders.
I'm trying to remember where I read the railroads are facing the same, self imposed labor issues as other businesses. Maybe the comments from this video on YT? IDK
In this case, supposedly UP is cutting back on security. Way less security guards on the trains or yards. Supposedly Amazon has some high speed container locks but that doesn't stop the thieves. So you park a loaded train in East LA, unguarded, over night. Is it any mystery?
