Update:
Fatal accident on Wirral railway line last night.

British Transport Police have launched an investigation after a fatal accident on the Wirral railway line last night.

The incident happened at 11pm near the Prospect Farm crossing between Meols and Moreton.

It is understood a person was struck by a train, although this has yet to be confirmed by the authorities.

Power to the track was cut off and buses replaced trains between West Kirby and Birkenhead North for the rest of the night.

More details to follow...

Very true. It will have been a traumatic experience for the Driver and Guard. Not forgetting the paramedics and police too. Some Drivers take many months before they can drive a train again.

That seems to me to be a very intrusive question.
