Is that true? The safest train is the one which is stationary. Cut off the wheels, and drop the rail cars on secure foundations (carefully) and you just protected yourself from 90% of possible accidents. If you remove everything flamable and weld the doors shut you got rid of 9% more.
Do you see why this is silly? Because the main business of rails is to transport people and stuff. You won’t be railroad engineering long if you don’t keep that in mind.
