Yeah, we let freight trains get so long that they don’t fit into the areas where they’d normally wait to let passenger trains through. Since they don’t fit, they don’t have to wait or yield the right of way to passenger trains.
Should be illegal to run a train too long to fit in the waiting areas.
The US already has that law on the books, it’s just not enforced.
No kidding? That’s tragic…
