We all can use reminders about train safety, especially since one wrong move can be the difference between life and death.
- Trains always have the right of way, even over emergency vehicles.
- Freight trains don’t run on set schedules and scheduled passenger trains can change. So you should be prepared to encounter a train at any time on the tracks.
- Never stop on the tracks.
- Approaching trains are likely moving faster and are closer than you think.
- When near the tracks, always remain alert.
Stay focused on safety when around train tracks. Keeping alert will help prevent tragic accidents.
