BBC News OnlineBritish Transport Police (BTP) has issued a warning over the dangers of trespassing on railway lines after two 12-year-olds were almost hit by a train when they ran in front of it.
The pair caused the driver to do an emergency stop on Wednesday in Wollaton, Nottinghamshire.
BTP said it has been officially recorded as a "near miss", meaning death or injury would have likely otherwise have occurred.
Image source, GoogleThe force said there have been other trespassing issues nearby including a pile of debris found on the line near Trowell three days earlier.
On a separate occasion, youths were seen placing items on the track near Courtney Close, Wollaton.
Insp Ellis Turner, from BTP Nottingham, said: “Too many times we have seen the tragic consequences of young people ignoring the warnings about trespassing on the railway and taking risks, resulting in terrible injuries or death.
“It’s vital parents and guardians play their part and ensure they know where their children are and what they are up to."
