We’ve all been around railroad tracks, but we probably don’t think about railroad safety enough. In fact, Missouri Operation Lifesaver says a person or vehicle is hit by a train somewhere in the United States every three hours. Today kicks off See Tracks? Think Train® Week, formerly known as Rail Safety Week. It’s a national effort to remind us about making smart decisions around railroad tracks and trains.
Joining Show Me Today is Tim Hull, Executive Director of Missouri Operation Lifesaver, to talk about rail safety and what we need to know.
