Everyone in rail has a part to play in managing the risks and keeping the railway safe. Here's how you can help.
You vs Train is the rail industry’s campaign to prevent trespass. The railway touches every community in Britain. Railway lines and depots are on our doorstep, yet so often the public are unaware of them and the risks. If they’re not secure, it can lead to tragic events.
On 25 June 2017, 11-year-old Harrison Ballantyne was hit by 25,000 volts of electricity at a rail freight depot. He died at the scene. To make sure Harrison’s story is never repeated, You vs Train has produced a video designed to help the rail industry learn the vital lessons. Please watch it (scan the QR code, right), share it with colleagues, and make it the advice in your trespass risk strategy and training.
