Railway station platform closed by pair of jogging bottoms

Trains in and out of Coventry railway station were stopped by a pair of jogging bottoms hanging on overhead lines. Virgin Trains, said one platform was closed for over an hour and ten trains had to be re-routed to other parts of the station. A Virgin Trains’ customer service manager called Dotty later said: “We have no idea how the trousers got up there in the first place.

“Sadly, we haven’t seen anybody running around half naked - although we have been looking. Network Rail came and they had to take the power out of the lines so they could safely remove the offending item.
“Since they’re 25,000 volt lines, they couldn’t have removed the trousers without cutting the power, or they’d have been hot pants. The workmen used a litter-picker to reach up nine feet to take them off.”
