Flying Scotsman crash

[JEZGUZ]

I'd guess that someone forgot the brakes.

sloppy driving far too fast

 

[dobbslc]

What a muppet!

When I go see my parents, I delete the daily mail website from their tablet browser and stick the guardian on instead. It's never mentioned.

This is such a fantastic idea. My dad especially is intolerable to listen to. He never used to be like he is now.

It's what the police call a hard stop.

Well we now know the cause was incompetence

normaly they slow down and stop near to carriages and the fireman gets out and waves the driver back slowly what went wrong

 

[Wozzaaah]

I would never have believed that you of all people would even consider the censoring of views that don't match yours.

I heard a 16 year old was driving it, they still haven't revealed any motive though.

Please tell me at what point I said I’m going to do something to my fathers belongings?

Not to mention, you don’t have any idea what my father is doing which makes me say what I have.

Opinions or views need to be based on facts. The Daily Heil's view are based on lies, half truths and cherry picking of information.

The Daily Fail is a lying, cheating rag designed to make you angry at the minorities, vulnerable and least able to defend themselves to divert blame from the real cause of societies problems.

It's called old age Kim! Ask my wife, she's use to it

So you can't think of situations where the views of others should be censored?

Yup ^^^ there's even a new ad campaign on the T.V. for some new drug to treat this:

That's just coupling up the train forces, freight trains are the worse offenders.

Yes but, "Train couples up to another one" isn't going to sell any newpapers.

Where as "World famous, fire burning monster train, with unexploded bomb boiler, smashes into parked carriages with the force of an African endangerd Rhinoceros" probably will.

And why let the truth get in the way of selling stories

 

[Erie Fred]

Yup....^^^
I had forgotten the term for the impact when coupling, it's called "Buff Load".
IIRC "Y'all" have a different hitch arrangement, with (2) spring loaded bumpers.
