The Railways and Safety
The Railways and Safety.
How different a picture is presented by road travel, where death and injury lurk around every bend, and where the casualty roll in a single week greatly exceeds that of the railways over a period of years! It is a fact that in one year road accidents in Britain are responsible for more deaths than have been recorded on the railways since the days of George Stephenson. New Zealand railwaymen are rightly proud of their splendid safety achievements. The fine results achieved through “Safety First” by their colleagues at Home will hearten them in their effort to prevent loss of life and limb.
