Powys train crash: Shell-shocked passenger recounts collision

A passenger on the Shrewsbury-bound train, said he felt “pretty shell-shocked” by the incident.

Anthony Hurford told BBC Breakfast it was “brutal”.

“Just going from, I don’t know how fast we were going, maybe 40, 50, 60 miles an hour, to nothing in the blink of an eye.

“Somehow my body bent the leg of a table and ripped it off its bolts attached to the wall.”

Mr Hurford said the train attempted to stop at lights but it did not come to a halt “for whatever reason”.
