Going at it like a train

Exposed ... our story yesterday
 

By JOHN ASKILLA SHOCKING video of a train driver having sex with a woman in his cab sparked fury last night.

The tape, handed to The Sun, shows him groping the brunette, stripping off her clothes and performing sex acts.

It emerged on the day we revealed another driver had been sacked for stripping naked in his cab in a high-speed game of dare.

At least FIVE other Midland Mainline drivers are said to be trying to out-do each other in shocking antics.

But the Derby-based company insisted the driver in the steamy train sex video was not one of their employees.

The new 53-second mobile phone video shows the uniformed man putting passengers’ lives at risk as he abandons the controls to romp.

The woman allows him to peel off her trousers and fondle inside her pants. Then he drops his trousers while she performs a sex act. In other pictures he lifts up her bra to expose her breasts.

Last night The Sun alerted rail bosses to the dare game — for the second time in 24 hours. Earlier we revealed how drivers on 125mph trains carrying up to 400 commuters were endangering lives.

A mobile phone picture showing the naked driver at his controls was sent to a shocked woman employee who raised the alarm.

One furious railway worker accused the drivers of “playing Russian Roulette with passengers’ lives”.

Midland Mainline, which operates trains across the East Midlands and into London, said one driver had been sacked after a police investigation.

Last night Andy Reid, Labour MP for Loughborough, Leics — which is served by Midland Mainline — angrily attacked the drivers’ pranks.

He said: “This is a serious issue. Some people might see this as a bit a laugh but I think most passengers would be a worried if they knew the driver of their train was not fully in control.

“There is a time and a place for pranks and behind the wheel of a train travelling at 125mph is not one of them.”

Rail Passengers Council spokesman Gautam Srivastava called for the train companies to take “appropriate action”.

“We take a very dim view of any action that brings the safety of passengers into question.” he added.

Last night commuter Rachel Lillie, 21, of Derby, said: “I think those involved should be fired. I can’t believe this can go on.”

I do love our dear British Friends, but I think that the next time I visit over the pond I will travel via other means than rail.

Some people try have sex in their cars or their motorcycles at full speed. Its hard to pay attention to where you're going when you're in the throes of pleasure. I've heard people do it in a plane. This is the first time I've heard of people having sex in a train caboose.

Driver: I say! Am I hurting you?
Woman: Why, no! Whatever would make you think such a thing?
Driver: You moved!

[goldstategop]

They say sex is le petit morte. I wonder what they call it when the couple both winds up dead after having had their romp.

This is the first time I've heard of people having sex in a train caboose.

According to the article, it's much worse than that.  It's the driver doing it, in the front engine.  If it were in the caboose then there might be less chance for harm, but in this case hundreds of people (or even more) are being placed at risk over this insanity.

I hope that it's not widespread....something very bad is going to happen.

"Do you know the driver? "

No...but that's MY wife!

[geopyg]

Maybe it was in the "caboose" while he was still driving the train.

What was even worse, when shown the video tape, the managers said "that's not one of our drivers"???? Well, then who WAS it driving the train.

"Dear, when I said we could do it in the caboose, that's not what I meant!"

“There is a time and a place for pranks and behind the wheel of a train travelling at 125mph is not one of them.”

I always thought it was child's play to operate the steering wheel of a train. What do they need a "wheel" for? What does it do?

I'd be more concerned about whoever was operating the brakes, not the steering wheel. LOL.

"DO you know the driver? Call The Sun..."

How can we do that without a picture?

Evey day it seems I read something that astounds me about the collapse of standards. My father was a career railway engineer. The few times I was permitted to visit him in the working area always required me being introduced to the (at least) assistant yardmaster as a way of vetting my presence. I was never allowed to be in the cab during actual train movement and the only time I had an on the job visit was when my dad was working a yard job never a through freight let alone a passenger job. This story reflects a complete collapse of discipline at all levels in Midland Rail. Its not just the operating employees that engaged in these disgraceful antics that the hammer should fall on but the management team as well starting with the superintendent of operations, the railway police and the office of the road foreman and the assistant road foreman of engines. For operating employees to engage in these acts indicates a long term decline of discipline and professionalism and the rot starts at the top.

Well its pretty bad thats for sure, but let me ask : What kind of slut would have sex with the Engineer while someone else was taking a video of the action?

[Mind-numbed Robot]

Well, then who WAS it driving the train.

Apparently no one. The real danger might come when he tries to drop her off at her house. :-)

[Mind-numbed Robot]

It may have been part of the latest union contract.

"DO you know the driver? Call The Sun..."

How can we do that without a picture?

I suppose we could start by focusing in on any train engineers who are either gleefully distributing 'an exclusive porn video' or setting up a pay-per-view website with a URL that goes something like "trainsex.co.uk"

This story reflects a complete collapse of discipline at all levels in Midland Rail.

I have no doubt that your father, by contrast, performed his job safely and admirably and always kept passenger safety at the top of his concerns.  This story, in my view, not only highlights a collapse of discipline as you so very rightly state, but also a complete lack of self-respect and the professionalism that stems from that.  For a person charged with such a job and the immense responsibilities that go with it to even consider such a thing as this is mind-boggling to me.

Hopefully the perpetrators will be quickly apprehended and made an example of.

Oh LAWD!
