This from Network Rail...
Children in primary schools across the south and south west of
England are to take the lead in educating classmates about staying safe
on the railway.
The Network Rail and South West Trains Alliance is launching the
railway safety reps programme across the route which runs from London
Waterloo out to the south coast and south west England.
Primary
schools will nominate children to learn about how to stay safe when
using level crossings and the dangers of trespassing on the railway and
will then share their new knowledge with their friends.
The
programme will complement Network Rail’s ongoing safety campaigns and
continued efforts to improve safety and reduce the number of incidents
involving children and young people.
Eye missed this when it was released last Wednesday but, in light of ASLEF's comments the day before, well worth a mention.
