The biggest killer in North America is heart disease. If you really want to
save lives go there. I couldn't find any real statistics for train accidents
that were limited to just the US but even looking at the list worldwide it was
a really small number...
Polluting somebody's water supply might not kill them but it puts a crimp in
their quality of life.

I don't have comparative statistics (not so easy to find unbiased info), but
my impression is that rail shipments go through populated areas and have
killed many people. One incident I read about in Quebec killed 47. The stuff
I read about pipelines is that they pollute when there are leaks, and that
the leaks are fewer, but spill more oil. My bias goes to saving more lives.

Depends on how you define dangerous. Pipelines leak and spill oil, one of
the big concerns the Keystone folks tried to ignore in Nebraska was
sensitive ecosystems. They claimed their poop don't stink...

The important thing is that rail transport of petroleum is dangerous. Look
at the number of disasters this has caused. Pipeline is much safer. The oil
will be moved somehow.
