There are a series of TV adverts running at the moment about the foolishness of jumping crossing gates across rail lines. This driver. I would suggest, hasn't been paying attention. This is the aftermath of his van being hit by a train on the Salisbury to Bath line this morning. You can read the full story here.How do I know this? Well I was on a train on this line this morning. Not the one that hit the car but the one going the other way that stopped in the middle of nowhere for 10/15 minutes. The one that then had to go back to Bradford-on Avon (as unsurprisingly the line was blocked) so that we could get off and stand in the cold for 50 minutes, get on a coach , be driven into Bath and then get another train to Bristol and then arrive two hours late for a meeting!!!!
All because some "red van man" didn't think that he would come second against a train!
Genius!

I see stuff like this and just think that the red van driver wanted to make sure there was more air for the rest of us!
