Agreed....but you try getting any uniformed officers out of Avon and Somerset HQ in Portishead between 4pm Friday and 8am Monday.......

Another reason to be impressed at the actions of railway staff too - a bit fortuitious but the HQ for Cambridge Constabulary is pretty well adjacent to the railway station.

Two men were arrested EIGHT MINUTES after the first 999 call was made. 8 minutes.

Evidence, away from the public eye, of quality communications, quick decisions and actions from the chain of railway staff involved in this.

Awful news...... but, the driver of that train deserves huge praise. Exemplary response that potentially saved lives.

The train involved may have been the LNER service to Kings Cross from Doncaster (1825). After its booked call at Peterborough, Realtime Trains now records it as at a stand at Huntingdon.
