Was a Upminster today and noticed that the buffer stops on platform 6, look like they have been hit by a train, any one know when this happened.
A temporary stop with 2 sleepers and a flashing red lamp have been put in place in of the normal buffer stop.

I noticed it first thing Friday morning, but don't recall seeing any damage earlier in the week........
EDIT: Just found a passing reference on another forum about a buffer collision at Upminster p6 on Thursday 13th.
