Yes! Especially since the UP trains
carry thousands of illegals and probably
drugs north out of MX! I saw a documentary
not too long ago about these very problems.

Since the UP Railroad has its' own Police, why are they NOT putting their own officers on the southern border? Inspecting their train cars, like they do in other locations?

Cause they need more Officers to patrol such a long trek of track.

Railroad police are more for doing police reports of incidences, theft, outbound inspection of cars for hobos, and at times ride or chase freight trains when expensive cargo such as bullion is transferred from place to place.

I work out of the Los Angeles UPRR yards in the Mechanical Dept so I have seen the RR Police on numerous occasions in the container yards doing their thing. At times I think the Railroad police are more there to Police the Railroad employees.
