"We’ve looked through their inspection records and came to the conclusion that there is an ongoing systemic failure in safety on the Berkshire Scenic," Housatonic Railroad Vice President Colin Pease told The Eagle. "The liability becomes overwhelming."
Pamela R. Green, an attorney for Berkshire Scenic, said the claims are "completely and totally false."
