Abstract

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, in order to restore the national economy as soon as possible, the Communist Party of China carried out maintenance and repairs on the railways that caused serious damage to transportation tasks through war-torn smoke, and carried out large-scale railway construction. However, in the course of operation, railway safety accidents occur frequently due to outdated equipment, low quality of staff, lack of rules and regulations, vandalism, and various natural disasters. In the face of severe conditions, the railway authorities summed up the accidents and learned the safety of the railways, so that the railway transportation industry, which started after the founding of the country, was gradually on the right track, and laid a solid foundation for the safe development of the railway industry.
