They are transporting and storing toxic explosive chemicals in massive quantities!
Senator Moore is concerned about that fact and I think he is doing a great job trying to keep the Citizens of Upton safe!
How many gasoline tankers traverse the streets of Upton daily?
How about propane trucks?
Oil delivery trucks?
Delivery and transport trucks with the "comforting" DANGEROUS placards?
The stuff on the rails in Upton is NO MORE hazardous or dangerous that stuff that is transported, probably in much larger quantities, in many more trucks, on the roadways through every community in the Commonwealth, including Upton!
Rail is a safe mode of transportation that trucks...
