“Still under investigation”, thus just as normal. (Quality Programs of Infrastructure management evidently needs upgrading…)
Costs of derailments are high, very high and frequency as well…
It is 2022 now and running on margin as currently is not timely. Risks at supply chains of clients means added logistic costs, casts currently too high.
An upgrading of infrastructure, safely above the currently allowed, for 32,5 ton axial load should benefit as well Industry, as clients.
