About Course

Railways bring hazards that are easy to underestimate: fast and quiet trains, overhead lines and conductor rails. Learn the risks for people working near (but not on) the railway and why early contact with Network Rail matters.

Tutwoo is an independent learning provider. This awareness course is written from published HSE, GOV.UK and industry guidance. It is not a competence qualification and does not replace practical training, authorisation or your employer’s procedures. Work on or near the line requires the appropriate railway industry competence and authorisation.
