(KSL News) The upcoming first runs for FrontRunner have Utah Transit Authority (UTA) officials looking to educate children.
UTA is taking part in a national program called "Operation Lifesaver" that is designed to teach elementary through high school students how to be safe around high-speed trains.
"We just hope that these kids really take this to heart because it is really, really important. We don't want to see anyone hurt. And hopefully with these presentations, it won't ever happen," said UTA spokeswoman Carrie Bohnsack-Ware.
The program has taken the message of safety to 18,000 students in Davis, Weber and Salt Lake counties.
