And that not by much (<10mins) considering.
Most impressive, even if it was a bit disconcerting having a train with
the front smashed in arrive at thornbury to carry us to the city.
I wonder if they had a spare driver or if the one involved in the
accident (who I assume would need to be interviewed) continued.
Its another example of the safety problems of level crossings. The one
at Reservoir is a nightmare and should be removed.
