Expressing support for the designation of the week of September 23 through September 29, 2024, as "See Tracks? Think Train! Week" in the United States, and supporting the goals and ideals of reducing highway-rail grade crossing-related incidents, fatalities, and injuries.

This resolution designates the week of September 23-29, 2024, as "See Tracks? Think Train! Week" in the United States. It expresses congressional support for the existing public awareness campaign run by Operation Lifesaver, which aims to reduce highway-rail grade crossing incidents, fatalities, and injuries through education and safety awareness. The resolution does not create new laws or funding but encourages public participation in safety activities during this designated week. It references 2023 data showing 2,192 grade-crossing incidents resulting in 247 deaths, highlighting the campaign's focus on preventing preventable rail-related tragedies.
