Kerny92 1,246 Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) A young kid died on the railway last month. He was working on a ladder pulling some cable, ended up slipping off and fell onto the conduit pipe that they had used to roll the cable drum on. It went through his back and pierced his heart. He was only about 4 rungs up as well. Apparently Network Rail have found nothing wrong with their method of work. I can spot two big no no's straight away, 20 year old as well ffs.

It's generally some fat arsed management/penpusher who comes out with crap like that.But it's not the likes of them that has to suffer when accidents happen. They just try to cover it up and hire the next mug who will take a risk. I know an instance of a lad who was killed in the process of cleaning a loading shovel cause some c**t was rushing around Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's the grief and shit that drops from the higher ups that makes people rush On a separate note I've been back up on chimneys and been sitting on the ridge tiles lifting the roof ladder up and over the ridge to go down the other side . Seem to have got back into it . f**k knows what was turning my guts before. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
