BLE-IBT Remote Control Rally

More than 300 union members rallied in Washington D.C. on March 11, 2003 to protest lax federal oversight of remote controlled locomotives.

Members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, International Brotherhood of Teamsters, and labor leaders representing more than 14 million union members picketed outside of the Federal Railroad Administration’s headquarters for more than an hour. The rally was organized jointly by the BLE and IBT.
