Fresh meat in the Buffet tonight?

This train has been delayed at Worle, has been further delayed at Bristol Temple Meads and is now 179 minutes late.
This is due to animals on the railway earlier today.

Yes, I have been informed that 2M69 hit a cow on the line between Nailsea & Backwell and Bristol.  Roll Eyes

I shall spare you all a repeat here of the various puns I produced on a previous occasion: see http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=12937.0  Wink Cheesy Grin

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post (a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London), depending on context) 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.
