Incident Command team training: Safety in numbers
A long-held value at BNSF is protecting the communities and environment where we live and work. That’s why we work closely with communities’ first responders to be prepared in the unlikely event of an emergency. This training is important, even though an average of 99.999 percent of hazardous materials shipments arrive at their destination without an accident-caused release.
This is who we are.
