South Shore Line spreading rail safety awareness

The South Shore Line is “all aboard” for National Rail Safety Week which is this week.

The rail line will help spread awareness of rail safety along the line.

Operators want to remind everybody that trespassing on railroad property is the leading cause of all rail-related deaths in the U.S.

South Shore folks say in an increasingly-distracted society, people wearing headphones and drivers talking or texting behind the wheel are making train operator jobs challenging.
