Sadly there was yet another person hit by a train at Southall on
Monday evening (yesterday).

This is very sad - but why so many at Southall anyway? It does seem to
be a regular occurance.

Anyway you would have thought that First Great Western might have had
a contingency plan for such occurrences by now.

Meanwhile the northbound M11 was closed for 15 hours after an accident.

I don't know how long it took to release vehicles trapped behind the
accident. No doubt many passengers missed planes at Stansted.
