Fatality On The Line Causes Total Shutdown | Paddington 24/7 | Our Stories

Описание: The Swindon Control Room the brain of the railwa —receives the call every controller dreads: a fatality at Slough station. As the British Transport Police and emergency services move in, the entire line to London Paddington is frozen. Thousands of commuters are stranded as the station comes to a complete standstill.

In the midst of this crisis, Station Manager Dean has a unique challenge: welcoming HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn of Thailand. But with signal failures and a blocked network, even royalty isn't immune to the chaos of the British railway.

From the high-stakes investigation at Slough to the bizarre job of a Mobile Operations Manager removing a "distressing" pigeon from the tracks, this episode shows the reality of life on the line. When tragedy strikes, how do you keep a multi-billion pound network moving?
