Union Pacific Highlights Rail Safety After 14% of Crossing Incidents Involve Vehicles Hitting Trains in Texas

Union Pacific Corporation recently marked Rail Safety Week in Texas by highlighting ongoing issues with risky behavior at railroad crossings. During a rail safety enforcement event in Houston, a news crew riding in a locomotive cab observed a motorist drive around descending safety arms and ignore warning lights-one of the most common violations seen at crossings. Union Pacific reported that so far this year, 14% of crossing incidents have involved vehicles striking their trains. As part of the "See Tracks? Think Train Week" initiative, Union Pacific partnered with local law enforcement, including the Houston Police Department and Texas Highway Patrol, to conduct enforcement operations in Houston and the Porter/New Caney area. Over two days, 107 motorists were stopped and issued citations or warnings for violating rail crossing laws. The events aimed to raise awareness and promote safer behavior at railroad crossings, with officers riding in locomotives to observe and address dangerous driving firsthand.
