Vandals dump objects on railway
Vandals have caused delays on the West Midlands rail network by placing objects on the line.
Crew on a service running from Birmingham New Street to Hednesford reported seeing an object, thought to be a shopping trolley, on the tracks. Later, staff on a service to Rugeley said they hit a wheelie bin which had been placed on the same stretch of line at Ryecroft Junction. The train was damaged and passengers had to get off at Tame Bridge. A spokeswoman for Central Trains said British Transport Police were investigating. "Unfortunately there are a lot of incidents of this sort every day. "People seem to think the railway is a playground." |
