Hmm.  There is an element of truth, in that there are two versions of 'times' on the railway, though: the public timetable and the working timetable?  Roll Eyes

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.
