we complain about traffic congestion in our town and city centres, this puts our problems in the shade.

No-one has a thought for the traumatised train driver.

The only thing the poor train driver can do shut his eyes and slam on the brakes, a bit like when someone jumps off a road bridge, it is not only the family that have to deal with the aftermath of suicides. A very sad situation all round.

A friend has had 2 jumpers in his career - the latest earlier this year in broad daylight and saw the whole thing as the person taunted him, must be horrible to experience
Been nice knowing you :)

i know someone that joined the london underground as a guard and a young man messing around with his mates went under the wheels of a central line train right in front of her on her second day in the job.
