Deadline Rail Safety Campaign

Always Safe, Never Sorry

As well as making sure thousands of people enjoy their journeys with us everyday, we’re working hard behind the scenes to ensure their journey is as safe as it possibly can be.

To do that, we need your help

By working together, we can prevent potentially dangerous incidents of trespass, vandalism and dangerous behaviour on trains, near railway tracks or on station platforms. Because what might seem to be a bit of harmless fun or simple carelessness can quickly turn into a very dangerous situation.

Deadline? Never mess around near train tracks. Think safe, stay safe. Deadline? Never try to beat the barrier. Think safe, stay safe.


For your safety, CCTV is in operation at stations, railway crossings and on most trains. This monitors inappropriate behaviour and, in an effort to keep everyone safe, we prosecute anyone caught damaging property or endangering others.

Let’s stay safe, together

We encourage you to play your part in staying safe by reporting any incidents of trespass, vandalism or assault against staff members.

If you’re also willing to go to court to give evidence that helps to secure a conviction, we’ll give you a cash reward of up to £1,000.


Read. Remember. Stay Safe.

  • Don’t use the tracks as a short cut.
  • Be on the platform in good time for your train and wait behind the yellow line.
  • Never mess around near train tracks.
  • Use railway crossings safely – always read and follow the warning signs.
  • Motorists - don’t be tempted to jump the lights or beat the barriers at railway crossings.
