Abstract
Safety significantly affects the assessment of the service quality, also in transport. It is commonly known that rail transport is one of the safest means of transportation. Due to the lack of individual users, the number of accidents is structured. Nevertheless, rail transport accidents still occur both in Poland and in other European countries. The article first covers an introduction to rail transport, then it briefly discusses systems and devices responsible for its active and passive safety. The next part focuses on some rail accidents in Poland and other European countries in 2019. Finally, it analyses statistical data regarding unwanted rail transport accidents in Poland and in other countries. In the summary, there are proposals of solutions which could contribute to the decrease in the number of rail accidents.
