| 26/07/2016 Farncombe |
Farncombe signaller granted a line blockage to a COSS between WZ 6 (the down platform starting signal at Farncombe) and WZ 205, but had agreed a call back time of 11:30 which was when 2P27 was booked to stop at the station.
At 11:30 when receiving a call from the COSS who only gave his name, Signaller cleared WZ 6 to proceed thinking that he was giving it up when in fact it was a call to request a further 2 minutes. The Signaller replaced WZ 6 signal to danger (red) in front of 2P27 which was still stationary at the time which prevented the incident escalating. This incident is subject to further investigation. |
