That's because you were all trying to kill yourselves. I feel I was right to shout at you/everyone else for it as it is very dangerous and potentially life threatening...

The more safety signs that are stuck up everywhere, the more they get ignored.

Be me.
Or do it during a light snowfall on a mid-January morning, with a brisk north-easterly wind.

Here is a report from the man himself.
Came into Icky with my camcorder filming and onto the pltaform and in ord3er to get a good roundel shot I postioned myself by the edge of the platform, in a position I though wa sn't too dangerous.
Andi said something like "train" and I actaully looked round and noted the train coming, so I was aware of its presence and it wasn't exactly going at a high speed since it was already slowing for the station call (If it was a HST thundering through Slough for example, then yes that is totally different).
As Matt says, on the deep level lines this is a regular occurence and I doubt there would be such a flare up. The driver did use his horn, but as I knew of it's presence beforehand I just ambled out of the way ready to get on it when it stopped.
