Bob Crow is openly saying a points failure which seems a bit early to judge.

Looking at the pictures, it seems amazing to me that there has only been one fatality. Just pray that there are no more and that the injured can recover from physical and mental injuries.

The 80 yr old didn't die at the scene of the crash but afterwards.

Not good? At least the carriages aren't twisted and crumpled.

That's what has kept the death toll down.

True trains are constructed better but still not good that it happened.

Hasn't been a train crash at Graygrigg since 1947. Except for the one when four maintenance workers were killed.

He's no right to say that when they were still pulling people out of the wreckage! He does'nt know the true facts and he should'nt use his suppositions for his own means, Shame on you Bob. :nono:

Arnitt has also suggested various theories which is very poor.

Let them investigate and then we'll see what caused it, I hate unprofresionalism within the rail industry!
