Know what to do near railroad tracks. Every 3 hours in the U.S., a person or vehicle is hit by a train.

Stuck or Stalled on the Tracks? Know what to do

If you don't fit, don't commit! Make sure your equipment can completely clear the railroad tracks before starting across.

Only cross at designated crossings.

Watch our PSA for Low Clearance Vehicles

Always expect a train. Trains can run on any track, at any time, in either direction.

It can take the average freight train traveling at 55 mph a mile or more to stop.

Operation Lifesaver's free rail safety brochure helps farmers and farm machine operators stay safe and avoid incidents around railroad tracks and trains.
