Well here I am back on Night shift, god its so tedious, It's a Railway Control office, nothing happens for hours on end, then all of a sudden something will kick off (usually just when your about to go home) then its just manic.
Despite popular rumour among UK Pop, we do our best to run to the timetable but outside factors often saboutage our efforts, in the ten years I have been on the job, here are some of the things I have dealt with:
A Helicopter on the line.
Cows on the line.
A rubbish truck crashing on a overbridge dumping its entire load over the tracks below.
A Naked woman running around the tracks.
Various dogs, foxs deers on the line.
Suicides glore.
I often think, would I rather be stuck on a train or stuck in a traffic jam on the motorway?
I would have to go for the train as it has a toilet on it and a bar.
Well one more night shift to go then a couple of days freedom!
