You think that Jonnie doesn't know that? He doesn't have to publish the figures here for you to (somewhat bizarrely) send to the directors of your railway. Cut the guy some slack, he's doing a great job in very challenging times.

I'm no fool, I've done this for nearly 10yrs and I'm well aware that £14k loss is a loss but when you read constantly in the press about losses equating to hundreds of thousands I thought (wrongly) that some might like to hear that it isn't all...

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...

A fairly noisy climb with Tangmere on a returning Scarborough Flyer when they ran from Crewe some years ago, 2012 if I recall. [MEDIA]
