Train travel is very safe, but the railway tracks themselves are not safe places. When people trespass on the railway, this can lead to life-ending or life-changing injuries, as well as heartache, trauma, and harm to family, friends and rail staff. The message is simple: stay off the tracks. The rail industry has a number of programmes in place designed to help explain the consequences of playing on the railway, and help people make the right choices and stay safe.
