Network Rail and Land Sheriffs Tackling Railway Incidents

ongoing

Network Rail have teamed up with security experts Land Sheriffs to reduce incidents which can cause delays on the railway and bring better, more reliable services for South Western Railway passengers. Land Sheriffs are working alongside Network Rail and the British Transport Police across the South Western Railway route, patrolling areas prone to incidents which can affect the operational railway, such as trespass, vandalism and deliberate level crossing misuse, with the aim of deterring and preventing incidents which can cause late-running trains and pose safety risks.
