Shocking CCTV footage captured the moment Michael Rochford’s 4x4 collided with an LNER Azuma train at the Rossington level crossing on the East Coast Main Line near Doncaster, South Yorkshire, on June 13. The train sustained damage while several passengers suffered whiplash injuries and a man in a nearby garden narrowly missed being struck by falling debris. Rochford, who worked for Network Rail as a signalling technician, had been drinking with pals at Rossington Main Football Club before the crash, a court heard. Witnesses waiting at the crossing described seeing his Range Rover Sport approaching the barriers at speed, mounting the pavement and striking the train. Rochford then crawled out of the vehicle and ran away, appearing unsteady and drunk, the court heard. Original Article: Original Video:
