A train driver managed to get his train onto a slow line and stopped at a station to facilitate speedy law enforcement.

A train guard put his life on the line to protect the passengers.

Remember that next time they talk about rail workers' wages or rubbish like driverless trains with no guards.

I happen to feel that the UK is a much less threatening place than it was in the 60's and 70's. I hesitate to suggest that that's because I lived there.
