What The Rail Safety Charter Calls For:

  • An ending to “death trap” unmanned level crossings

  • A legal limit to train drivers’ working hours

  • In cab safety devices that can detect obstructions on the line

  • A 21st Century signalling system

  • A safer travelling environment

Background information on the issues can be found in various issues of the Locomotive Journal - in particular the February 2005 and March 2005 issues. Both can be viewed on the main ASLEF website.
