Fluky Escape


Loved this story during the week, it's a metro train in Spijkenisse, Holland that overshot the end of the platform and crashed through the wall at the end of the station. Luckily the driver and passengers of the train escaped the 30ft drop into the canal beneath, not because of good brakes but because of a sculpture of a whales tale decorating the end of the line! What you might call a complete fluke! Just in case you're worried, no real whales were hurt in the incident, and everyone managed to walk away unscathed, the driver having a particularly interesting tale to tell!
