2. Removing sentence (B), the remaining sentences can be arranged in the order: (D) → (C) → (A) → (E).

3. This sequence forms a meaningful and coherent paragraph:
   - (D) The present system of running trains on a congested network
   - (C) At the cost of maintenance and safety
   - (A) Has to give way to
   - (E) Safety consciousness in operations
