Default surprise surprise.....another train crash on a level crossin

getting a bit threadthin now all these train crashes on level crossings - this time a wagon in north wales. only wagon driver injured - he'll be in for a serious shafting from the police and network rail.

I went to the memorial service today for the Ufton Nervert crash that happened last month.Very sad , Met Sophie Wessex there.Had a few nice moments though when we were getting thanked by survivors and meeting the families of the lost ones was a bit hard.

It goes to show that rail crossing accidents are more common than you'd think, the only difference is that now they all get reported because of the recent tragic one.
