    Are Network Rail in charge of the track?

    Good day for this to happen: A report into the Cumbria crash caused by bad maintenance of the line, and a tube strike.

    Dunno, if it means some more chavs get sliced 'n' diced by high-speed trains whilst up to no good on the tracks, it can only be a good thing in my book.
