The Short Line Safety Institute offers a regulatorily-compliant Hazardous Materials Training program. The program is designed to supplement your existing program and can be tailored to your operation. Training is held at your location and there is no cost to the railroad.
Based on the material covered in the training program, SLSI has produced a series of short educational videos that provide a basic overview on key elements of the Hazardous Materials Regulations. The videos were designed with the busy railroader in mind and range in length from 4 minutes to 7 minutes.
