They should not have left the train unless instructed to do so by the driver or BTP. They are in violation of the terms on the ticket and broke railway by-laws. I hope they all end up in court and get fined - there are too many hot heads about when stuff like that happens and they insist on taking the law into their own hands. If they had got mown down by a train who would be responsible then - the driver of the train? Next week that would have been dark by that time and lineside is definitely a dangerous place to be.
