English: Southall Rail Crash, 1997.
View NW from a passing train: ex-GWR Paddington - Reading main line, just east[?] of Southall Station. Four days before, a High-Speed Train from Swansea, with defective Advanced Warning System (AWS) had collided at high speed with an empty stone train being shunted across its path - protected by adverse signals. The consequences, including seven people killed, were horrific. [Precise location uncertain?]
