No, I haven't lost the plot!  Wink

Rather, I'm sharing member ChrisB's view that this sort of problem won't suddenly go away on New Year's Eve:


And the first for 2025....New Thread please!


I'm merely preparing the ground here, ready for member TaplowGreen to develop this topic, in due course.

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.

It will be well used and I doubt I'll ever get any delay repay compensation.

Fatality at Hanwell by the looks of it.  The ultimate unhappy new year for somebody then.  Thoughts to friends, family and all involved.

Sadly, we are now ‘in the season’ for such incidents.
