Kevin Williamson is joined by Jason Samuels, a former train conductor and Marine Corps veteran now working in leadership within the American rail industry. They discuss Samuels’s path from military service to railroad operations, regulation, and research, and explore how modern freight rail actually works. The conversation covers safety, automation, drones, and the vital but often invisible role rail plays in moving goods, supporting agriculture, and sustaining the U.S. economy.
