El Mirage Vehicle Facility:
The El Mirage Vehicle Facility in Arizona is a significant rail yard that has been operational since the early 2000s. It is a bustling hub of activity, employing approximately 500 workers who ensure the smooth transit of goods and vehicles across the country. On a typical day, the facility sees around 50 trains pass through, highlighting its importance in the national rail network. However, the nature of the work at this rail yard exposes workers to various toxins. Diesel exhaust, a common byproduct of the locomotives, contains hazardous substances such as benzene, formaldehyde, and particulate matter. Prolonged exposure to these toxins can lead to serious health issues, including respiratory problems, cardiovascular diseases, and an increased risk of cancer. The facility management continuously works to implement safety measures and reduce exposure, but the occupational hazards remain a significant concern for the workforce.
