Title: Person hit by a train near Taunton - 12 Apr 14 Post by: bobm on April 12, 2014, 20:53:10 From Journeycheck
Quote Alterations to services between Taunton and Castle Cary Owing to a person hit by a train between Taunton and Castle Cary all lines are blocked. Impact: Train services running through these stations may be delayed or revised at short notice. An estimate for the resumption of normal services will be provided as soon as the problem has been fully assessed. Incident is between Taunton and Cogload Junction, so also affects services towards Bridgwater/Weston-super-Mare and Bristol. As always, thoughts with all those involved.

Thoughts with the train crew involved. Title: Re: Person hit by a train near Taunton - 12 Apr 14 Post by: Chris from Nailsea on April 12, 2014, 22:10:57 With thanks to bobm and James Vertigan, I've moved and merged two topics started almost simultaneously here.
I agree: thoughts, as ever, with the family and friends of the deceased, and with the train crew and members of the emergency services dealing with this sad incident. :( Title: Re: Person hit by a train near Taunton - 12 Apr 14 Post by: JayMac on April 12, 2014, 22:13:49 Incident has been confirmed as a fatality and is being treated as non-suspicious by the BTP. Lines have recently re-opened.
