No Second Chances is a bold, hard-hitting rail safety campaign, developed under a unified rail safety brand identity.

Created in collaboration with partners from across the rail industry, the campaign brings safety messages together under one clear and powerful brand. Each phase focuses on a specific behaviour that puts people at risk on or around the railway.

This phase tackles the dangerous use of shortcuts across the tracks. People may be familiar with the area, believe they know when trains are coming or assume it is safe if no train is visible. But trains can come at any time and other dangers, including electrified rails, are not always obvious.

The campaign challenges these misconceptions and interrupts the split-second decisions that can turn a seemingly harmless shortcut into something with catastrophic, life-changing consequences. Its message is simple: Never take shortcuts across the tracks.

These campaigns are no longer live or being promoted to public and passengers. However, if you would like to use these resources please ask permission from Network Rail’s marketing team: marketing@networkrail.co.uk
