Jack 2 nights ago and as yk me how i live next to the tracks anyway but it was 2am (don’t ask why I was awake) and I heard a massive screech of a train brake. Earlier around midnight I saw a weird van pull up and ppl got out. Anyway at the 2 am one I heard like an engine and when i looked outside there was a train next to the crossing. Bc of so many people k!lling themselfs network rail shut it down. And I could see in the cabin around 4 people Turing the lights inside the cabin on and off. Then it powers up and just left. It was a network rail train and it had like massive built in boxes that looked like the oil train thing in those massive tubes. It wasn’t a de icing train tho. And at around 11pm it went past built I only saw the red lights at the back and thought it was a freight. On the other side I saw sm1 with a helmet with a built in torch walking around it. I also went outside and I saw that it defo was a network rail van. Any clues why or what happen?
