  • 1999 Annual Report
    Dear Members of Congress: The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is pleased to submit its report for fiscal year 1999. As an independent federal agency, CPSC helps keep families, especially children, safe in their homes, schools, in recreation and in other places by overseeing the safety of 15,000 types of consumer products. To reduce injuries and deaths associated with these products, CPSC identifies and analyzes product hazards, works with industry to develop voluntary safety standards for products, monitors compliance with voluntary standards, issues and enforces mandatory standards, obtains voluntary recalls of dangerous products from the marketplace, and informs the public of potential product risks. CPSC’s mission is critical. Though we have had many successes, there is still much work to accomplish. Injuries kill more children than any disease in the U.S., and account for a sixth of all hospital stays. There is an average of 22,000 deaths and more than 29 million injuries each year related to consumer products. Each year, CPSC saves the nation many times the agency’s annual budget. While it is impossible to accurately measure how many tragedies we prevent each year, the agency’s primary performance measures are reductions in deaths, injuries and other costs to the nation, such as health care costs and property damage. The performance measures that are available prove that CPSC’s activities do provide a substantial benefit. The work of CPSC has contributed significantly to the 30 percent decline in the rates of deaths and injuries related to consumer products since the agency’s inception.

The Explosive Mr. Hyland It's Hard to Keep a Good Man Down John F. Hall n the 1870s and 1880s railroad construction was a dangerous occupation. There were few if any safety standards. Injuries and even death were common occurrences, and the newspapers were full of such reports. The construction of the South Pacific Coast Railroad was no different from the others. But sometimes workers were lucky and managed to survive. One such person was Michael Charles Hyland, an Irishman by birth and a true survivor.

  • Boxcars: the Roof Problem
    Boxcars – The roof problem. By Randy Hees All rights reserved Author’s note: The following was written for the newsletter of the Society for the Preservation of Carter Railroad Resources. It originally ap- peared in three parts over a year. I have reassembled the various pieces and illustrations. Defining the Problem: If you visit Ardenwood Farm, and the Society for the Preservation of Carter Railroad Resouces museum during our winter rainy season, you will find that we have tarped two of our boxcars, SP 10 and SPC 472. (elsewhere in the park, Nevada Central 253 is similarly covered.) We have done this because their roofs leak. The roof on SP 10 is at best beat up and at worst rotten, but the roof on 472 is new, installed in 1997, and repaired and repainted in 2002. Additionally, some of the boards are showing signs of rot, and the roof will need even more work this spring. Sitting in stor- age are two more boxcars, SPC 444, and Pahjaro Valley 215, both currently carrying iron roofs installed after the carbodies became sheds. With the problem identified, we have started a process to research and understand 19th century practice. Our study of 19th century sources suggest that our problems are not new, nor unique. As early as 1874 the then new Master Car Builder’s Association (MCB) had formed a committed to research roofs. Their report, published in the July 1874 National Car Builder stated: ―In the Construction of freight-cars, the roofing is a matter of paramount importance. Experiments, with a view to more satisfactory results, have been made by car-builders with varying success.
