Caution at Railway Crossings Essential in Victoria

Death toll reached 23 from railway level crossing accidents last year in Victoria with 15 more injured. The Railways Department urges 1926 be a low record year through vigilant driving and cautious behavior. Drivers should pause to look both ways and wait for approaching trains. Railways Commissioners invest up to £50,000 yearly in warning devices and clearing obstructions to improve visibility. Accidents will persist until the public accepts that any moment can be train time at a crossing.
