Network Rail Releases CCTV of Teen Dodging 100mph Train at Diss Crossing

The footage serves as a half-term safety warning to discourage risky behaviour at level crossings.

Overview

  • The incident was recorded earlier this month at a level crossing north of Diss station in Norfolk.
  • Network Rail said the young person seen in the video was not harmed.
  • Trains on this stretch can reach speeds of up to 100mph, and fast services require long distances to stop.
  • Network Rail’s Shenel Bullock and Greater Anglia’s Matthew Wakefield urged people to follow gates, barriers, lights and alarms.
  • The release forms part of targeted half-term messaging focused on prevention, with no enforcement action or infrastructure changes reported.
