Track staff van which was supposed to be by the Up and Down Slow lines, which were blocked to rail traffic. Instead staff reversed it onto the open Down Fast line with its rear close to the Up Fast line on which the train approached. There were no injuries or damage.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐦 (𝟏𝟗𝟖𝟗, 𝐀𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞) "We Come in Peace. We Live you in Pieces." Great Performance by Gary Oldman as a Seemingly Respectable Estate Agent who Lives a Double Life as the Head of a Violent Gang of Football Hooligans. Controversial upon Release 👊🏻😎⚽

Average UK rail electrification project requires equivalent of 2 pages of paperwork for every dropper installed (dropper in pic). Great Western electrification required 40k pages of reports. I hope the spending review includes funding for shredders and recycling bins.
