Title: Person hit by a train at Parson Street, Bristol - Friday 1st August 2014 Post by: John R on August 02, 2014, 10:16:21 One of the final services of the evening appears to have hit someone at Parson St last night. Curiously the station is still closed this morning although services are running through.
RTT shows the last northbound service being delayed by 108 mins arriving into BRI at 0138, and the last southbound HST (2335 ex BRI) showing an arrival into BRI at 0128 which may have been turned back. As always sympathies to all those caught up in the incident, both family and railway staff.

I'm sure more news will come as & when it becomes public.
