ABSTRACT This Rail Safety Data Report (RSDR) analyzes event data collected through the State Safety Oversight (SSO) program and provides a snapshot of the safety performance of the rail transit industry for the nine- year period of calendar year (CY) 2007 through CY 2015. This report focuses on the types of events that occurred, their consequences in terms of fatalities and injuries, and their likely causes. The report standardizes event, fatality and injury numbers by 100 million vehicle revenue miles (100M VRM) as reported to the National Transit Database (NTD). By identifying and analyzing this information, FTA can develop and conduct research, training, and evaluation targeted at the situations and conditions that pose the greatest risk of harm to passengers, employees, station occupants, and the public. 15.
