From the British Transport Police press release:

Do you know these men? Police appeal for information after theft of luggage from train ^ Cornwall

British Transport Police (BTP (British Transport Police)) officers are appealing for the public^s help to identify two men they would like to speak to in connection with the theft of a passenger^s property from a train in Cornwall.

Investigators have today released CCTV (Closed Circuit Tele-Vision) images of two men they believe will have information which can assist the investigation into the theft.



Detective Constable Dave Bailey, investigating officer, said: ^Luggage that had been reported stolen from a London Paddington ^ Penzance service earlier in the day was discovered by rail staff in the disabled toilet at Totnes station on Tuesday, 9 July.^

Since the theft, officers have made extensive enquiries to trace those responsible but to no avail. They are now seeking your help to identify two men they wish to speak to about this incident.

DC (Direct Current) Bailey said: ^After reviewing CCTV footage, I would like to identify and speak to the men in these photographs as I believe they will have key information about the incident.^

Do you know them? Can you help BTP^s investigation? Anyone with information should contact British Transport Police on Freefone 0800 40 50 40 or text 61016. Information can also be passed to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. In all calls, please quote incident reference 594 of 09/07/13.

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.
