    Investigations are under way into the deaths of two 16-year-old boys who were struck by a train as they used a foot crossing in north London.

    An 80 mph Stansted Express hit them going through the gated crossing at Pegamoid Road, Edmonton, half a mile (800m) from Angel Road station.

    The driver reported sounding the horn and braking after seeing five youths on the track on Friday night.

    British Transport Police say there were no warning lights on the crossing.
