Abstract

This report updates previous statistical analysis of fatal train accidents on running lines of the national railway system of the UK.

The paper presents estimates of frequency of fatal train accidents and fatalities based on accident data from 1967 to 2009.

It examines the estimates since 2001 and compares them with the safety risk model (SRM) of the Rail Safety and Standards Board.
