Operation Lifesaver “Shark” Safety PSAs Will Be Featured in Amtrak Stations May 9

WASHINGTON, DC, May 5, 2009 – Amtrak will showcase Operation Lifesaver’s “Shark” rail safety public service advertisements (PSAs) in four major cities as part of its celebration of National Train Day, May 9, 2009. National Train Day commemorates the first transcontinental railroad and promotes rail travel with major events in Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Chicago and Los Angeles, and other events in communities nationwide.

“These PSAs provide a humorous reminder that safety is an essential part of train travel,” said Operation Lifesaver President Helen M. Sramek. “Using common sense is an easy way to practice safety around tracks and trains,” she continued.

The PSAs, aimed at pedestrians and drivers, can be viewed online at
