William Huskisson MP▸ 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.

... and on a Sunday. Not a normal Sunday though. I expect it will be quite quiet tonight. |

It's not the passengers travelling on the train who I'd be concerned about - I've caught the sleeper from Bodmin Parkway in the past, and the idea of waiting there for nearly two hours doesn't appeal. |

Best for those Bodmin Parkway passengers last night would have been a timely instruction to take the service down to Penzance where their beds were, but an instruction like that is fraught with uncertainties.

Or at least as far as Truro where there is also a staffed waiting room.

Delay repay is excellent on the sleeper as most people are quite happy arriving late but are still entitled to a refund!

Tonight's westbound sleeper will start from Reading rather than London Paddington due to a shortage of staff.

Just arrived at Paddington - 06:30, which is 86 minutes late and a substantial delay/repay claim for all the passengers on board who will be hugely inconvenienced by this late arrival in the capital. |
