Olive McFarland - a walk to a train to oblivion

Ah, the loveliness of the British countryside.

The glory of the British rail system.

And here's an 82 year-old actress flying into the British countryside after being hit by a train.

Where did she end up?

Here, Here and Here?

One of the problems of a crumbling rail system is unattended crossings, mismanaged schedules and faulty equipment.

While nothing much can be done if a child is careless or some domestic wildlife wanders off, or if some dotty old lady doesn't have it together and is smacked to pieces, the fault DOES lie mainly with the trains on the plains.
