-
Always cross railway tracks at a designated and marked crossing. Attempting to cross at a place other than a designated crossing could be deadly.
-
Stop no closer than 15 feet (5 metres) from the nearest rail.
-
Look both ways and listen for approaching trains.
-
Always cross at an angle as close to 90 degrees as possible.
-
Even if a train is already passing through the crossing, another train can approach unexpectedly from either direction on other tracks.
-
If you see a train approaching, or if the warning signals at the railway crossing are activated, stop and wait in a safe place, away from the tracks.
-
Once the train has passed and the warning lights have stopped flashing, ensure you have a clear view down the tracks and look both ways for other approaching trains.
-
Cross the tracks only when you are certain it is safe.
