    Always amazes me the lack of container strength in a collision, although they stack them 10-15 deep on a container ship.
    Hope everyone is OK, cue amazon wondering where a batch of parcels have gone....

    Reported as a signal passed at danger (SPAD), root cause not yet clear and RAIB will be looking.

    May be a total red herring, but I've seen suggestions that the location is noted for "read across". Relevant signal is on a bend, possibly obstructed by vegetation, whilst the adjacent main line signal is clearly visible.

    Only another 12 months or so until the RAIB report comes out and we know...
