Quote Wiltshire Police is appealing for witnesses after a suspected arson attack at Swindon and Cricklade Railway. Fire crews were called to the site in Tadpole Lane, Blunsdon, at around 5.50am yesterday morning (07/06) due to a railway carriage being alight. The fire was quickly brought under control, but the recently-restored carriage had been completely destroyed. Investigating officers believe the fire was started deliberately. Thanks for your post, Hal ... I will probably merge this with previous incidents once we get past the hump of initial discussions. Title: Re: Apparent arson at Swindon & Cricklade Post by: broadgage on June 08, 2021, 14:00:42 It is my belief that arson whether against railway equipment or otherwise needs to be taken far more seriously by the police and by the courts.
A prison term should be the norm for all but trivial cases. And life imprisonment should be the norm if life is lost, even if the arsonist claims that killing was not the intention.
