RAILROAD
SAFETY FILM:
Without Warning
©The Angels on Track Foundation®
VHS - Approximately 24 minutes
In an effort to educate the general public on existing hazards
at dangerous unprotected railroad crossings and to dispel
the common belief that motorists are always at fault,
The Angels on Track Foundation has produced Without
Warning.
Based on circumstances that victims of preventable rail/highway
collisions and motorists face each day when they are forced
to cross over 96,000 public grade crossings in this country
that are not equipped with protection devices, this film
hopes to draw public awareness to the deplorable safety condition
of our nations railroad crossings. Approximately 21% of public
crossings have gates, while 61% are passive (unprotected).
Private crossings, not regulated by states, often have no
markings or protection devices.
By placing focus on the current condition of crossings, lack
of protection devices, outdated safety equipment, and complacency
on this issue, The Angels on Track Foundation hopes this
film will be used as a tool to draw attention to the dangers
that exist at all railroad grade crossings. Trustees of the
Foundation hope that schools, driver's education instructors,
public safety departments, or anyone interested in learning
more about existing hazards at grade crossings, will call
for a copy.
