The railways were a very dangerous industry in the 19th and first half of the 20th centuries with many thousands of workers injured or killed each year. Growing pressure from trades unions and new safety laws gradually improved the safety for railway workers and safety posters and notices were produced to raise awareness of the dangers to life and limb.
