I wouldn't want to be in the car when this happens.

Wonder how much that Top Gear stunt cost!

Some poor bugger must have spent the next two weeks shovelling the gravel back in place....

I reckon I could raise enough money to have it re-done, except this time with Clarkson in the car.

Given that the train was painted in "don't take the risk" livery, I suspect it's ben done more than once for PSA type things by Network Rail

Or as the dozey bint on Daybreak this morning said: "He walked away, with life-threatening injuries". Must admit I chuckled.

Serves him right.

No, only closed a week. Trains only run on Saturday's on that bit of line so didn't even delay any trains!

I shall reserve my thoughts about the car driver incase it was a genuine accident/ equipment fault. Hitting something Shogun size is more than enough to derail a train. I hope my fellow footplate man and the passengers in his charge are ok.
