Terrifying accident and abysmal shirking of responsibility well presented.

Brilliant analysis and commentary 👏🏿. Just subscribed and 👍🏿. Please tell us someone has served time in prison for this which is absolutely corporate killing.

Interesting reading of the report. Also that other national railways were already aware of this but in the uk railway industry physics is different in the uk to the rest of the world ! I saw the rail in the lab and it truly was an eye opener.

Superb explanation, maybe slightly rushed but very well done. Never realised it was so complex.

Maybe it's unpopular to say it, but it's clear that the fatalities and injuries resulting from this accident have a direct lineage from the decision to privatize Railtrack in the way they did. Executives making safety-critical operations and resource management decisions when their bonus payments are in opposition to people's lives results in bad outcomes for the people on the ground - workers and customers alike.

There is a line in the report I found interesting which was that Railtrack was putting performance of trains over safety. I wonder if we are heading that way again

If joe public actually knew how the railway was managed they would be petrified. What you see on the tv from managers and politicians concerning the railways is just a smokescreen.

And then it would seven years before inadequate inspection and maintenance would cause another fatal accident (Graryrigg).
