Re: Switch and wheel diagrams in RAIB report
Yes, I read it with great interest too, Martin, but I didn't find any discussion as to when the RAIB arrived on site and why it took them so long to get the railway running again. And that would be as important a lesson to disseminate, if only to dispel the suspicions of the old hands.
