This may all be so, but Thames Trains was actually convicted and fined £2m for health and safety offences which I believe were related to the deficiencies in their training programme.

As the most dangerous approaches to stations can I add two now closed stations...
Ilfracombe.. Approached at the end of a long 1 in 37 downward hill.
Folkestone Harbour.. Similar to Ilfracombe. Approached at the end of a mile long down hill section of about 1 in 37. Just before the station was a level crossing.
