Drunk woman falls underneath train at Barnsley station UK

A tipsy train passenger steps off a train, stumbles backwards and falls on to the tracks in horrifying CCTV footage released today.

The woman, who has not been named, was getting off a train at Barnsley station earlier this year when the accident happened. She was recovered from the track and taken to hospital suffering from cuts and bruises. Trains were delayed for 20 minutes.

British Transport Police today released the CCTV video to show the dangers of being under the influence at railway stations, especially during the festive season.

Inspector Graham Bridges said: "This woman was lucky to only end up with a few minor injuries and, had it not been for the alertness of other passengers who helped her, we could have been dealing with potentially serious injuries.


"We understand that at this time of year, with Christmas fast approaching, people will be out at parties and will be consuming alcohol.

"We certainly do not want to spoil this and would simply ask that anyone drinking alcohol does so responsibly.

"Over the Christmas and New Year period, we will have an increase of high-profile patrols by officers at stations to reassure rail staff and passengers and make them feel safe.

Utter bullshit - that was the new fangled BTP hopeless welfare case consumption device being tested prior to widespread use: She failed to find a demeaning, meaningless, mundane dead end job within the time allotted by the uberfascist City government, and so was consumed by the Machine which requires fresh human fats and bone bits for peak efficiency. Look it up under Ministry of Permanent Unemployment Solutions under "waste population Final Solution".

I guess when they say women are good at 'multitasking' they don't mean walking and chewing. They probably mean watching Celebrity Big Brother while gossiping with one of their braindead clone friends on the phone and thinking about handbags.

Amazing that the gap between train and platform is so large that someone could fall into it.
