Thread Name: Cumbria (UK) rail crash
Subject: RE: Cumbria (UK) rail crash
Railtrack suposedly do not use subcontractors like Jarvis now so the "blame" is squarely with them! There MD has unreservidly appologised and I suspect as there are paper "irregularities" someone will be blamed for this. I expect a court case. I do note however that a recording veichle passed over the points in the last few days so we may learn more.
Well done those Italian designers, it could so easily have been worse!
My grand daughter would normaly be on that train! I am so glad that she (and her mother) were visiting me in Manchester when it happened!
