but other enthusiasts on this thread have lost their sense of proportion. This is about a company that allowed their train crew to drive past a signal at STOP, which they should have known was protecting busy main line and with the safety device that would have prevented it tampered with (not tinkered as one rail mag described it). Hundreds of people were on the two trains involved and only good fortune left the WCRC fouling the junction after not before the HST had passed through. The potential results were unimaginable (actually I can, I'm a doctor at a major trauma centre). They were given a chance to remedy this but lesser events continued. I don't really want my pottering around on DMUs and occasional trips to London to share track with them unless they can reach the high standards of safety I expect on rail. They run a limited number of trains for leisure, rail is about regular transport.
