    "A passenger who apparently missed their stopped pulled the emergency cord on the train at Ashtown.
    The man then broke into the driver's cab and punched him in the face."

    I wouldn't have thought it would of been that easy to get to the driver.

    some nutter stopping the train because they missed their stop.

    I heard that the train was stopped at Ashtown and some passengers beat up a chap who was abusive. Driver went to investigate the incident. I cant see how he could have broken into the cab . Didnt hear anything about the driver being assaulted.

    Nutters on a friday is the norm these days. Its like they are let out for the weekend from various institutes.

    Was going to ask the same ting, clearly the driver went to reset whatever was activated.

    Unless the driver happened to leave the door ajar, the locking mechanism was broken or the guy caught the door and followed him in directly don't see how he could get in either.

    Hope the fruit loop gets caught and gets what's coming to him. No-one should have to put up with that kind of crap at their work.
