About The Event

Join Greg Morse and your CIRO South East Council for this important talk covering the Clapham train accident of 1988, its causes and the lessons for us today.

With four RAIB investigations with similar causal chains to Clapham, this is an essential talk for railway operators across the industry to ensure that the lessons of Clapham are not forgotten. You will come away with an improved understanding of the incident and its importance, as well as what it means for the present and how change impacts safety.

1. Emergency and Incident Management
4. Managing Safety
