On August 6, 2026, members of Beauregard Parish Fire District One participated in a Railroad Investigation and Safety Course presented by the Union Pacific Police.
Firefighters from our Fields, Bivens, Singer, Merryville, Pujo, and Junction stations attended this valuable training, where they learned how to safely conduct emergency operations on and around railroad property within our jurisdiction. The course provided important instruction on railroad hazards, scene safety, railroad operations, and best practices for responding to incidents involving rail traffic.
Ongoing training like this helps ensure our firefighters are prepared to respond safely and effectively while protecting both our personnel and the citizens we serve.
A special thank you goes to Mr. Jack Bartlett of the Union Pacific Police for taking the time to travel to our district and provide this outstanding training. We sincerely appreciate your expertise, professionalism, and commitment to helping first responders stay safe.
Training today. Prepared for tomorrow. Serving our community with pride. 🇺🇸🚒
