"It's cheaper to clean up derailments than it is to fix the track"

Or something like that.

After my first year on a freight short line, and seeing a fair share of both derailments and major track work, I have to wonder, is this actually true?

Both cost LOTS of money, man hours, delay trains, etc. etc.

I heard a similar remark several times on the Milwaukee Road:

"Try to keep them between the fences, they are easier to pick up".
