    What is that forum about? I can't see anything about what subjects it covers. Do I have to sign up just to find out whether there's anything of interest to me?

    Reportedly doing 165mph instead of 110 when it derailed.

    WNXX is mainly diesel enthusiasts including the modern scene but also with a fair few preservationists on it.

    That's not good, reading some other stuff, evidently 7 in cab, and children on board as well.
