Purley - 1989
🕑 Added 2025-06-22 10:00:37 +0000 UTCOn this weeks episode of Signals to Danger we head back to 1989 and the South London suburb of Purley. After a signal is passed at danger one train collides into the rear of another that has just the station, with carriages tumbling down an embankment into the back gardens of local residents. Join us to hear what happened and what investigators found when they descended on the scene.

That is a fascinating insight into this sad event, and in particular the background to the sentence being overturned. It strikes a chord with me. I was for many years a union rep in a safety critical organisation. I had several cases where a member had been part of a disciplinary process for making a mistake. I always started with the statement that " Nobody should be disciplined for making a genuine mistake" It usually helped management focus. Then moved onto training, monitoring, workload, rest, previous incidents, previous performance etc. But I felt starting that way generally helped make the case.
