IN the week that saw two adults found guilty of failing to safeguard the lives of two children on a railway line, I found it incredible to see a so-called adult sitting on Accrington station with both legs dangling over the platform edge and with a couple of young lads, aged about eight or nine, sitting on either side of him.

I hope the CCTV cameras got a good look at him and that it is followed up.

Words fail me. What was, or was not, going on in his head or that of his partner who was looking on with studied indifference?

One can only have sympathy for the train crews when faced with such cretinous conduct.
