Yes, an unfortunate accident but back then people were expected to look out for themselves and didn't expect the Nannies to rush in. When I was a lad (born 1941), my mates and I played near railway lines, of which there were many in the area where I lived. We were expected to keep a good lookout for anything moving and to appreciate that a railway wagon was much heavier and harder than we were. No-one that I knew were ever involved in an accident.
