22A Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 Just after 0800 Network Rail alerted to a trespasser on the track at Bedminster. Police in attendance and trains stopped; |I then found these comments on another forum. Rope team on way from Birmingham so very long job. Just tazer the ****, all this mollycoddling cowmanure for the attention seeking moron gets on my tits! What the eff is a 'rope team', why do they need a rope team when there are steps up the gantry and why hasn't Bristol got any rope? Bedminster line reopened after being shut for 3 hours because the person decided he was hungry, Police now escorting him to the nearest cafe for a full English to be paid for by the tax payer!

Admin phantom Posted May 25, 2018 Admin Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 Was told he was going to jump from one of the signal TOWERS, After trying to get in front of a train. Was heavily delayed this morning, eventually got let off at parson Street with a coach taking everyone on to temple meads after a 25 minutes journey took over two hours. To be honest IF the guy was suffering from mental health issues it was the right cause of action. Out of interest @22Awhere did you hear this from?

Dollymarie Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 He had mental health issues and was in distress.

Then as you can see yourself, there’s a quote option on here, which would have made things clearer. OP I apologise for directing any anger towards you, but I hope you can see why I did.

In France and most of the European network, trespassers do so at their own risk. Trains carry on running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A mate of mine used to be the bloke who washed the trains at the end of the day. He had to deal with some pretty horrific stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Maesknoll Red Posted June 11, 2018 Admin Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 Lost count of the number of fatalities I've attended and dealt with, had two in one day a couple of years back, it does remove some sympathy you might have, why not just sit at home and take a load of pills, a lot less messy than when a train hits you. I've seen Drivers careers ruined by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen so many old bill, fire crews, NR staff and overhead helicopters for a relatively routine incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
