RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted August 31, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 31, 2016 Is it the gantry leg or is it actually a signal head? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Joseph_Pestell Posted August 31, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 31, 2016 Gantry leg. It is the victim's head which is mentioned. Sentence might read better as "passenger's head was struck by gantry" but since he was moving and the gantry was stationary, the report is technically correct.

RMweb Premium phil-b259 Posted August 31, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 31, 2016 The following account of Simon's last trip on the Bluebell has recently been sent out to Bluebell members. A fitting way to celebrate his all too short life and railway career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
