RIP.
Tragic waste of life, how hard can it be to spot a train and not get yourself in front of it?
If it's a suicide then a very, very selfish way of doing it.
Dont think you have a right to say that as you werent in that persons shoes!
It's sad when anyone takes their own life. You must have to be in a really desperate place to do that. However, there is a large element of selfishness involved in standing in front of train. A total lack of consideration for the driver. My dad's a driver and has, luckily, never had a hit. But one of his colleagues has had 3! Some drivers never recover.
Of the two accidents that happened near Hoylake last, one of the jumpers was spread over the line. Not a nice sight. The other, although not killed right away, was in a bad way and the poor guard had to stay with her as she died. The victims aren't only the jumpers but also the drivers, guards and emergency services who have to deal with it.
