\"US-PACKAGE<\/p>\n

Here’s the story<\/a>, less in anger than in sadness, from Bloomberg:<\/p>\n

Union Pacific is considering changes to rail operations including avoiding Los Angeles County as a rise of cargo theft in the area hurts business.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not exactly clear how the Omaha, Nebraska-based company would carry out such a threat and use alternatives to the nation\u2019s largest gateway for imported goods. But what\u2019s obvious is the railroad\u2019s frustration with the lack of deterrents for committing crimes like trespassing and theft along the current route….<\/p>\n

UP is calling on local law-enforcement officials to prosecute more aggressively.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Good luck with that, guys.<\/p>\n

\u201cCustomers like UPS and FedEx that utilize our essential rail service during peak holiday season are now seeking to divert rail business away to other areas in the hope of avoiding the organized and opportunistic criminal theft that has impacted their own business and customers,\u201d UP public affairs director Adrian Guerrero wrote in a Dec. 20 letter to the Los Angeles district attorney….<\/p>\n

In the three months leading up to the holiday shopping season, UP said an average of more than 90 containers were compromised per day and more than 100 arrests were made. \u201cOf all those arrests, however, UP has not been contacted for any court proceedings,\u201d the letter stated.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Golly, how could that happen?<\/p>\n

The railroad has\u00a0increased the\u00a0number of agents, drones, fencing and trespass detection systems. \u201cWe need the L.A. District Attorney\u2019s help to ensure there are consequences for those who prevent us from safely moving customer goods,\u201d UP said in the statement.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ladies and gentlemen, having your city tuned into a dump and making no response to open, rampant theft (“non-violent,” dontcha know) is a choice.\u00a0 Los Angeles can make a different choice.\u00a0 If it doesn’t, it can’t say at this point that it didn’t know the consequences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
