I think that provided that there are no restrictive structures and the line side is maintained the risk is low until the person gets to their waist. I am not a guard, but I have twice halted my train and walked back to have a few choice words...

ykin01 liked The Gricing Owl's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.
I was at Horsted Keynes today for what, at times, seemed like a Gala day! 32636 (Fenchurch) with 31065, until the A1X took a break, leaving 31065 heading the 14.15 Sheffield Park alone; 73082 on a normal serivce train; then on what looked like...

The Gricing Owl liked jamesd's post in the thread WCR 2024 Railtours.
Presumably the timing on Tangmere being so out is down to a stretched chain (s)? Is that a simple fix? Is there scope to tighten the chain or is it a case of replacing it? Wikipedia says the following so presumably all preserved Bulleids have had...
