Posted: Sat Jan 13, 2007 11:16 am Post subject: Grafitti Vandals killed
It has been reported that two kids were killed at Barking, Essex when hit by a train after being caught spraying grafitti on tube trains in the sidings. Their mates escaped unhurt. As far as reports are concerned, these two were 15-year-olds. While I have no sympathy for them, I do for their families, because they don't always know what their kids are up to.
I feel even more sympathy for the driver of the train that hit them, in so much he couldn't swerve out of the way to avoid them. Let's just hope he doesn't suffer from it. _________________ Once the misery line, but now passed on to another.

Was up at Stratford last night &, after dropping CJ off at Upton Park, we saw several sets of "Blues" but didn't know where they were going, until this morning.
My thoughts are with the Tube Driver bringing his unit into the depot for the night and just minutes from the end of his working day, also with the families of the dead BUT it serves the b@s@a@d right. Whats the odds on the Families trying to LUL?
It now turns out they were in their early 20's, not 15-year-olds. They wont do it again and perhaps their mates will think twice now? _________________ Once the misery line, but now passed on to another.
