<abstract displayLabel="Summary">This study arose from a case of mesothelioma in a locomotive driver, and from concern that conservation and recycling of old locomotives and coaches causes exposure to asbestos. During the steam engine era all trainee locomotive drivers in Finland were exposed to asbestos in the railway workshops. When working in traffic operations, the drivers were exposed to combustion products and to coal tar. New diesel locomotive drivers are exposed to exhaust fumes from the engine</abstract>
