Fatal accidents at railway level crossings in Great Britain 1946–2009 [PDF]
Accident Analysis & Prevention, 2011 This paper investigates fatal accidents and fatalities at level crossings in Great Britain over the 64-year period 1946-2009. The numbers of fatal accidents and fatalities per year fell by about 65% in the first half of that period, but since then have remained more or less constant at about 11 fatal accidents and 12 fatalities per year.
