national express crash

[Yorkie]

It looks like one of the double decker coaches which I found very uncomfortable on the motorways. The top swayed too much at 65 mph. I wonder if the driver was taking the slip road too fast and it flipped over?

If you use trains regularly find the shortest distance journey in the uk, Ryde St Johns Road to Ryde Esplanade and go into your local station. DEMAND a season ticket for this journey. Once you are a season ticket holder you are then a GOLD CARD holder and entitled to a third off all train fares in the Uk (off peak). you can also upgrade to 1st class for a fiver.

You have to be a regular traveller off peak but it could be worth it.

Love it! If this is true it's a fantastic way to get your own back on the railways for their outrageous fares. No good for me though s I don't use the train enough.

Used to generate my own tickets for National Express all the time.

If you run the risk of dying on the f*ckers, I would rather do it for free.

Sad day. RIP

We think Jim Toner (ex Leeds player of not many appearances) is one of those injured and his wife dead. Paddy is trying to get hold of Jimmy's son

He held (or still holds) the joint keepy up record with JC.

one of the dead has been named as 76 year old christina toner

Yeah. It was her. Paddy got their son just after I posted.

It's hard enough reading about a tragic accident but it must be dreadful to know that someone you knew was it in.

Wrong, wrong and more wrong. It has exactly the same validity as a Network card which you can buy for £20.

You're right.
