These incredible officers talked to all the kids about railroad safety, their jobs, and different aspects of maintaining a railroad. They made sure that every class knew about the ENS (the Blue and White sign), which is the Emergency Notification Sign found at every crossing. This sign can help in an emergency around the railroad tracks. (*More info below!)
The Historical Society wants to send a very special thank you to Alex Ascolani CN Police, David Barajas CN Police, Heather LiFonti Risk Mitigation Officer, DShawn Dangerous Goods, Matthew Frazier and Schuyler Williamson Signal Maintainers for joining our groups and giving such valuable information and insight to all the students!

Report emergencies and safety concerns at a highway-rail grade crossing by using the information on the ENS sign at the grade crossing.
โLocate the blue-and-white ENS sign at the grade crossing.
โ Call for help! Call the railroadโs emergency contact number listed on the ENS sign.
โ Communicate your location by providing the identification number and state the nature of the emergency to the dispatcher.
The signs contain the railroadโs emergency contact number and the U.S. Department of Transportation National Crossing Inventory Number, which identifies the exact location of the crossing to the railroads.
A final set of Thank Yous
๐ ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐ฌ๐๐ญ ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ง๐ค ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ to EVERYONE who donated to this year’s ElmerJ Program for Griffith’s 3rd graders!
This isn’t nearly all the thank you notes and pictures we received. There were oh-so-many more, and all equally as grateful and excited that they were able to visit our museum and learn about Griffith’s history AND that it was all completely funded by the kind donations of our Members!!
So THANK YOU once again! You can donate to us anytime via the “donate” button on our website. And if you would like to volunteer for events like these, or anything down at the Historical Society, please send us a message or email ([email protected])! We are always looking for volunteers and enthusiastic Griffith-ites to help our programs run!
