    A train operator is to fit laminated windows - currently only being installed in high speed trains - to every train it runs, costing £8m.

    Transport firm, FirstGroup, which runs First Great Western trains, announced the move on Tuesday. The news comes as an inquest into the Ufton Nervet train crash in Berkshire in November 2004, which involved a First Great Western train, continues.
