Tonight (Monday 9th May) between 21:00 and 22:00 BBC4 television is broadcasting a documentary about the Quintinshill Railway Disaster which occurred on 22nd May 1915. It resulted in the deaths of more than 200 people, most of them Scottish Territorial soldiers en route for Gallipoli, and was the worst railway disaster in British history. The documentary, presented by historian Neil Oliver, has been broadcast before and ably explains the circumstances leading to the disaster as well as the notion that it resulted in a cover-up by the government and the railway company. As it may be of interest to forum users I'm posting this thread so that those who read it very soon might have the chance to watch it or set their DVD recorders. In fact I've just seen that it's due to be repeated on BBC4 on Thursday this week at 23:35 and gives another chance for watching or recording it. Presumably it will also be available on BBC iPlayer for a few weeks or so. Graham B
