It allows users to generate data tables on train accidents, employee and trespasser casualties, highway-rail crossings, casualties, accident trends, and related topics. View data by railroad, state, date, and other factors. Also includes rules on sounding of train horns and whistles at public crossings. Dates available vary by topic; many go back to the mid-1970s.
