Description
Driver Error @ Tamworth High Level on the 25th June 2014..as the Glasgow train approached the station it was going far too fast to stop and the brakes were slammed on with lots of smoke and smell..the train managed to stop before the next signal where it was stopped for a while before the driver got out and had to walk to the other end and reverse back into the station to pick up/let off passengers..i didnt manage to film the trains emergency stop as i wasnt expecting this to happen..filming the train driving the wrong way along the line was rare enough to film..it left a bit late..i expect the driver was a bit embarrassed ...
