    It's mad how only one person died, when you see the wreckage you'd think most of the people would of died.

    :confused:

    there hasn't been a fatal crash attributed to the rail industry for 5 years (one for suicide), that's the longest accident free period in european history...

    japan has had 3 major crashes in that time..

    one 84 year old in 5 years is pretty good..

    Please stop hijacking my thread.


    Virgin's new trains are apparently state-of-the-art in terms of safety so it's perhaps no surprise fatalities were at a minimum.

    Your thread has no point. You've pasted a link to something that is all over the news, summarised it with some bland statement and put a shocked smiley to make it clear you're surprised. Moreover, one person's already pointed out how wrong your surprise is. So what exactly do you hope for 'your thread' if it's not to be just a casual conversation about something over than how uninteresting the thing's been so far?

    I can't remember where I originally posted it. I've been in an alcohol fuelled stupor since teatime friday.
