I’ve been listening to the excellent Signals to Danger podcast, which I can highly recommend.
But it got me wondering, in an accident, statistically, which is the safest place for a passenger to be in a train?
So many of the accidents involve front and rear collisions, which would put those near the top of the list, but the middle sections are not immune too, from a sideways hit.
Of course, railways are about the safest way to travel, but the stories recounted in the podcast, and reading about others, couldn’t help but make me consider this question.
