All is not well on the Railways.  Interesting story on the BBC news
website at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/3977189.stm

The documentary about this story, Wistleblower, is to be shown tomorrow
9pm - 10pm on BBC1.  The Radio Times describes the show:

"Over a six-month period, three BBC reporters went undercover to find
out the truth about safety on Britain's railways. It's the
fastest-growing rail network in Europe but has had four major disasters
in the last seven years. Working as track maintenance men, what the
reporters uncover makes astonishing viewing - after tragedies such as
Southall, Ladbroke Grove and Potters Bar, it seems we still haven't
learned the lessons."
