 Govia Thameslink fined £1m over train window death - smokie

I just thought I'd post this just for those of you, especially and railway buffs, who may not be aware that if you stick your head out of the window of a moving train, it may get knocked off. We owe it to ourselves and our fellow humans to spread the message far and wide.

I know there are signs telling you that but apparently they are not necessarily prominent enough. And Govia are probably still recruiting for the window monitors to guard each window.

But if you do stick your head out of the window and it gets knocked off you can be reassured that the Coroner will not say what a stupid berk you were, nor will he consider making an order against you for the cost of the disruption to the railway services and other peoples lives.

It did surprise me that he didn't provide helpful advice on which languages the signs should be created in....
