Snap! I've just posted a link to the video footage over in chat.

What can you say to such a moron?
 
I thought at first it was one of those bright sparks who ignores the warning bells&lights and 'just nips round the barrier'

At some level crossing there's a sign saying 'Give Way to Trains'

Which seems a very good idea, beats me why anyone would need to be told....

They said "Police believe he may have been drinking, or have taken drugs."
I think he's definitely gone off the rails at some point.

aargh!!!!!!

Obviously a track cyclist.

He needs properly trained in use of railway stations.

Thankfully it was a local line only, otherwise it could have been Virgin on the ridiculous.

och.

Maybe he was campaigning to get the railway line converted into a new Sustrans route...

This gem from the report itself (my bold):


"As he tried to climb back onto the platform he fell back on the tracks, just missing the live rail.

Pc Graham Cottington, of British Transport Police, said: "The footage in this case is truly shocking. "

As is the live rail....
 
I know there are problems getting bikes on trains, but it would seem that there is no problem getting trains on bikes....:biggrin:
