any escape route.

I recall a story of an angry bloke trying to get himself and his family into
the cab of a freight train (or light?) locomotive at I think Wandsworth Rd
station, which seems bizarre enough to be true.

Some people are clearly far too stupid to be allowed to travel.

He probably insisted that the freight carry HIM and HIS family.
