I was on the train that hit the tree that came down onto the line, all I can say is that my ears still hurt from the loud bang. I have pictures that I am in the proses of uploading. These were taken after we had shunted into Ruislip station and de-trained.

The smashed windscrean.

Bits of wood sticking out the windows.

The front of the train.
Note: no trespass was involved in taking this photo, I asked a member of staff to do it for me.

Emergency response 1

And the other one

Writing on the side of one

A little to large for the parking space :D

Both of them

Bye bye ;D

Don't knock personnification, it gets you brownie points with the examiners.

Good point, was in a rush when I posted this as I had 20 million MSN convos saying "were you hurt?" and "are you OK?" at the same time- never seen so much orange at the bottom of my screan in my life:D
