Farmer dies at level crossing
03.08.07
A FARMER was killed
yesterday near Limavady when his tractor collided
with a train travelling from Derry.
Seventy-year old James Craig died in the crash at an
unmanned level crossing on the Carrowclare Road
around 3.30pm. |
No passengers or train
staff were hurt although the driver was very shaken,
said Translink.
Rail services were disrupted for some time while
passengers were taken by bus to their destinations.
Mr. Craig's son, Robert, said his father was "a
character".
"He loved farming, his life was for farming. |

|
He took very little
holidays, just worked hard and he kept us working
hard," he told the BBC. An investigation is now
underway into the accident. |
