I read the following article in last month's Railway Magazine:
"Train drivers have renewed calls for charges of attempted murder to be brought against anyone derailing a train". "This comes after BTP caught vandals placing bricks, concrete, metal poles & wooden stakes on the Manchester-Chester line..."
"...The vandals concerned were taken to their parents and warned that they would face court action if they repeated their actions." - I personally think that's disgraceful, and that they should have been charged. The vandals concerned should do some time in Feltham - that'd sort them out.
Do the LU train operators in this forum agree with an 'attempter murder' charge being brought about, or do you hold a different point of view to your 'main line' counterparts?
