Cholsey Fatality

[s3an]

It seems there is a fatality at Cholsey affecting trains through there. It is sad and not the fault of any TOC. I will be on the train at Reading until we begin our journey again, without complaint.

Perhaps others reading this can vary their journey, or could be advised of alternative routes by those with better information.

regards

Sean

Tickets have been and continue to be accepted on Chiltern Railways' trains in the Banbury area.

A very unfortunate and sad incident.

Very nasty by the looks of things. Thoughts to all involved.

It was 6W54, struck a person at Didcot East. Hope the driver is coping OK, I cannot imagine what some drivers (and other staff involved in the aftermath) must go through when involved in incidents of this type.
