Union Pacific Crushes 2 Houses

Wanted: Union Pacific
for crimes against the people of San Antonio

A rude awakening on Tuesday afternoon for the folks just north of downtown -- Union Pacific cars came crashing into the neighborhood as they accordioned off the tracks. U.P. once again narrowly averted extreme disaster. The latest derailment in San Antonio, the 15th of 2006, raises a sounding alarm for the health and saftey of all communities that live along the railways. SWU demands the rerouting of U.P. rails and all hazardous materials as well as the immediate development of an emergency evacuation plan to ensure safety of these families. While the City breathed a sigh of relief that people were not injured, we do not know what will happen the next time. The inaction of the railroad and elected officials leave residents to live in fear. While the tracks are being cleaned, U.P. has offered nothing to assist the families whose homes they recklessly destroyed.
