 "UR Safety™" Plant Railway Switching
Safety Training Program Kit
Telly Awards Winner!

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, on an annual basis there are 83 fatal accidents and several thousand lost-time injuries experienced by employees who switch rail cars. An equally big problem is property damage to buildings, structures, vehicles and other rail cars that often go unreported.

Developed by the Union Tank Car Company's Safety Department, the Safety Training Program Kit will help you prevent rail car switching accidents to save lives, time and money through training, testing and documented incident reporting.

The complete kit costs $395 and includes an 18-minute video tape, six lesson workbooks, six rule books, one Instructor's Guide, and other training aides; and extra copies of student materials are available for a nominal fee.

Call, mail or fax your order for the Plant Railway Switching Safety Training Program Kit to the Illinois Safety Council today!
