Thanks for posting that item, dickyc.  Smiley

Unfortunately, due to work commitments, I won't be able to attend, but may I encourage anyone here who is free on that day to do so?

Opportunities for questions to be asked at senior level with GWR (Great Western Railway), apparently.  Wink

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.

Many thanks for posting, Dickyc.  Matt is one of the GWR team very well informed (as you would expect from his job title) on where GWR are headed - especially in the western part of the franchise area - and this is an excellent opportunity to be updated.
