rail safety week

  This was held last week in NZ, website.  About 20 years ago one of us was waiting with another enthusiast in the Adelaide Hills of South Australia, to take a photo of vintage diesels climbing them with a freight train, when suddenly a family decided to take a short cut by walking across the tracks in front of us, only a matter of seconds before the train was showing up... On that occasion we managed to warn them off in time, but others aren't so lucky.
