tracks and property.

Participating schools received a Safe Crossing Week package, which includes a Safe Crossing school certificate; lesson plans incorporating rail safety into language, math, social sciences and physical education classes for kindergarten to Grade 6 students; Safe Crossing Week posters; student activity booklets; parent letters and fact sheets; and interactive web-based teaching tools.

Children and parents are also invited to visit Obie's website, a fun-filled and interactive site featuring an animation of CN's real-life safety train, Little Obie, which encourages kids to get on board online at http://www.cn.ca/obie.

To stay safe near railroad tracks, parents and children need to follow these simple rules:

- Always cross at a railroad crossing with lights, gates and/or the

crossbuck sign;

- Listen for the warning bell and train whistles;

- Look both ways before crossing the tracks;

- If one train passes, make sure that a second train is not approaching

on the same or another track; and

- Walking or playing on or near tracks is dangerous and can be illegal.
