See Tracks? Think Train® Week

See Tracks? Think Train® Week (formerly Rail Safety Week) is a concentrated week of rail safety education focusing attention on the importance of making safe choices when driving or walking near railroad tracks and trains. First held in the U.S. in 2017, this collaborative effort among Operation Lifesaver Inc., State Operation Lifesaver Programs and rail safety partners across the U.S., Canada and Mexico is now called See Tracks? Think Train® Week (ST3Week for short) throughout the U.S. to better represent what the week-long observance is all about:

 - Preventing railroad crossing and trespass incidents across North America
 - Concentrating public attention on the need for rail safety education

Law enforcement and first responder partners play a crucial role in promoting rail safety education during See Tracks? Think Train® Week through Operation Clear Track. Spearheaded in the U.S. by Operation Lifesaver, Inc. (OLI) and Amtrak, this collaborative initiative raises awareness and educates communities about the importance of making safe choices around tracks and trains.

View the map showing where Operation Clear Track events will be held across North America on Tuesday, Sept. 24, actively engaging in person and virtually, sharing the #RailSafetyEducation message.

Thank you to the law enforcement organizations, firefighters, Emergency Medical Services and Offices of Emergency Management departments taking part in Operation Clear Track for making a difference and enhancing rail safety awareness in communities throughout the nation.
