On Tuesday 16 June 2020, two track workers were undertaking a survey of the trackside vegetation on the west coast main line between Cheddington and Bletchleystations.
At 16:28 hrs the driver of a northbound train passing Leighton Buzzard station at 125 mph (200 km/h) observed a person standing next to the line in a place where theclearance was limited by the structure of an overbridge. The driver sounded the train’s horn and observed the person move swiftly out of the way, but not to a defined position of safety, around one second before the train reached him.
