Why don't you edit out the accidents not invoving NA railroads and tell us how many your list has.My list includes your class l railroads.The Noth American class-I railroads are all privately owned, carry millions of ton-miles every year, have an impressive safety record and are accessible to everyone.What would be your "improvement" on the U S transportation system? Private ownership of all of the highways and roads in our country? The Airports? The ferries? The trains?Just think how greeeeat Amtrak could be with a 5 billion dollar subsidy ...
What kind of a safety record and access do you imagine a completely "for profit" system would provide?
Impressive indeed! The link I provide lists the 1,000 or more railroad accidents since 2010. It's WAY to big to post here.

So your list encompasses the entire world and goes to show that even government controlled railroads will still have accidents..
