Railroads Mocked Its "Ridiculously Wide Cab" — Then It Cut Train Crew Deaths By 80%

Railroads initially laughed at this locomotive’s unusually wide cab, calling it unnecessary and impractical. But what seemed like a strange design choice would go on to save thousands of lives. In this video, we explain how improved visibility, safer crew positioning, and smarter ergonomics drastically reduced fatal accidents among train crews. The wide-cab design marked a turning point in railroad safety, changing how locomotives were built forever. Learn why traditional rail operators resisted the idea, how accident data proved them wrong, and how this innovation helped cut train crew deaths by nearly 80 percent across major rail networks.
