After watching the NOVA documentary "Why Trains Crash", write a short essay (no more than one page,single-spaced). This essay can be about any topic the documentary discusses, including: Are trains

a "safe" mode of transportation? Should more be done to make trains safer? Should the US spend more money be spent to build more trains (high speed, light rail, or otherwise)? Any thoughts about the safety of Denver's light rail/commuter rail? Any other ideas you have about contemporary rail in the US and lessons we can learn from other countries?
