“During the year 1930 only one passenger was killed in train accidents on the Home railways, a safety record which is probably unique in railway annals, having regard to the immense business handled. The train mileage for the year was 424.2 millions, and the liability to casualty in the case of passengers was one in 1,684,000,000,” says our special London Correspondent, in an interesting reference in his current Letter to several famous British trains, and their world reputation for speed, comfort and safety.
