Aurizon Near Misses and Collisions | Dashcam Ltd

Aurizon near-miss incident

Traincrew at one of our Western Australian depots requested Aurizon release to the community this near-miss video footage, taken from the front of a locomotive on Saturday lunchtime in the Goldfields Esperance region.
Seconds separate our crew from a serious collision.
Our train drivers hope the video will help raise awareness with motorists and heavy vehicle operators of the need for vigilance when using these regional crossings.
It follows a series of near misses and collisions at level crossings for Aurizon and other freight rail operators operating across Australia. This includes the tragic incident on New Year’s Eve when two industry colleagues from Pacific National were killed in a level crossing collision with a truck in South Australia.
After the Aurizon near-miss incident in WA, our depot leader has spoken with the trucking company, and we are very appreciative of their efforts in raising the incident with the driver and with their employees more generally.

The more we can do the better.

We know there’s a number of contributing factors to level crossing incidents and collectively, we must step up efforts and investment to improve safety for our traincrew and for the general community. This includes the rail and road industries, all levels of government, enforcement and road safety agencies, and the general community.
