Default Fox Under A Train

"Brian Watson" gurgled happily, sounding much like
they were saying:

Minor delays are occurring between Camden Town and Kennington via
Charing Cross due to a fox on the track at Warren Street.


Oh, for fox sake!


Also, given the location, I'd have thought the fox's purpose was obvious.

How could a fox get on to the sub surface section of the track?


By walking.

Is there still a large, vacant site just over Euston Road where
something was demolished?

More likely it entered the station than walked along the track.

And how do foxes enter stations? On hang-gliders?

I really don't understand the question. Warren Street station isn't
in the sky.
