Along the rail line from Glasgow to Barrhead, a safety campaign informs children about the risks associated with railway travel.
As part of the Barrhead to Glasgow electrification project, Network Rail has completed half of a safety campaign that raises awareness of the changing railway environment.
Rail employees have been collaborating closely with Learn Live, a company that creates and conducts safety seminars in-person in classrooms, for the past three months.
Together, they have been warning young people and children about the risks of railroads and how to keep safe around them along the Glasgow to Barrhead railway corridor.
