Safety Recommendation

The ATSB recommends that SCT develop arrangements that do not
require employees to ride a locomotive/wagon whilst it is being
shunted, this should be done without compromising the safety of
shunt movements; or if not feasible develop a restraint
mechanism/workstation to protect a shunter from falling from a
locomotive/wagon whilst carrying out a shunt movement.
