@yassie_j @rail_ @jeder its kinda funny, the traditional UK train safety system (AWS+TPWS) is a kinda cobbled together mess, the speed limit is higher (125mph 201km/h) and the lines are very intensively worked yet the UK railways are among the very safest in Europe.

The most probable answer for how this happened IMO is “They put the Rail Accident Investigation Branch and the Air Accident Investigation Branch in the same office”
