Bomb Trains examines the rise of crude-by-rail after the Bakken boom and the 2013 Lac‑Mégantic derailment that killed 47 people. It explains how volatile oil shipments came to cross towns and cities across North America.

Investigative reporting traces regulatory breakdowns and industry influence that elevated risk, documents community efforts to resist, and assesses recent policy rollbacks. The narrative connects case studies to broader questions of oversight and public safety.

Valuable for policy makers, community organizers, and readers following energy and environmental policy, the book outlines concrete problems and possible reforms.

  • In-depth investigative narrative and case studies
  • Analysis of regulation, industry influence, and safety gaps
  • Practical recommendations for rail and public-safety policy
