    American Short Line and Regional Railroad Association "Jake Award with Distinction" for 2002, 2003, 2006 and 2007. The Jake Award was launched in 1994 by Copper Basin Railway president L.S. "Jake" Jacobsen to recognize short line and regional railroads that operate without any reportable injuries or fatalities. In recent years the award program has been administered by ASLRRA, which created the Jake Award with Distinction to recognize railroads that operate without any reportable injuries, fatalities, or train accidents.
