This train has been delayed between Oxford and Charlbury and is now 21 minutes late from Charlbury. This is due to flooding.

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.

Presumably the flooding to which they refer was in one of the train toilets! Smiley

Indeed - I doubt the land has flooded, not been enough rain...
