- How did it come about that the unions knew BNSF was using non-union labor for locomotive maintenance?
- Give us a short timeline on what conditions created the situation where BNSF had to go outside the union for help.
- Any word from BNSF responding to the lawsuit?
- The unions cite the derailment in East Palestine as the major event which railroads should see as a cautionary tale to avoid - how much of this is a safety oriented lawsuit and how much is simply a labor lawsuit?
- Are any other railroads being scrutinized the way BNSF is under the microscope here?
