Idiots About The Line - Soham

Time for an exciting new Eye feature - Idiots About The Line!

Our first entry comes from the Newmarket Journal...


Eye salutes Rosemary Aitchison, chairman of Soham Town Council, Cllr James Palmer, Cllr Peter Moakes, Geoffrey Van Orden MEP and Cllr Tom Hunt for trespassing on the railway, putting their lives at risk and potentially scaring the living b'Jesus out of some poor train driver.

Hopefully the BTP will soon be knocking on various doors to advise the above individuals of the exciting prizes fines that await them...

UPDATE: This from the Wisbech Standard 24...

Red faced councillors including East Cambs District Council leader Peter Moakes apologised to Network Rail for standing beside the track at Soham in Cambridgeshire when they toured the district with MEP Geoffrey Van Orden. 

Very good.
