Stonehaven train crash: Driver, 45, and conductor killed in landslide smash pictured as heartbroken friends pay tribute – The Sun

THE driver and conductor killed when a train ploughed into a landslide and derailed have been pictured.

"Lovely" dad-of-three Brett McCullough, 45, died alongside "absolute gem" Donald Dinnie and a passenger in the horror crash in Stonehaven, Scotland.





The engine is reported to have burst into flames after the carriages buckled and one rolled down a steep embankment yesterday.
Six others were taken to hospital, but are not believed to be seriously hurt.

According to a rail industry source, the Aberdeen to Glasgow ScotRail service had already reversed from another landslip caused by fierce storms and switched to a different set of tracks.

It comes just four weeks after the rail watchdog warned about a spike in landslips on tracks.

Dramatic images show a tangle of mangled carriages from the wreckage on the tracks after the horror unfolded at around 9.45am in Stonehaven.
