Probably is less environmentally dangerous. Depends on how many spills
come from the pipeline, and how big they are.
BTW, TransCanada is going for eminent domain to grab the land needed.
That should go over real good. I can see the headlines.

If you look at spills per million barrels, pipe is by far the safest.
Talking about spills, not even close to true according to this.

"The association has published a battery of statistics to show pipelines
have more and bigger spills than rail operators. It estimates railroads
spill just 0.38 gallons for every million barrel-miles of crude moved,
compared with an estimated spill rate of 0.88 gallons on the pipeline
network."
