Three of eight carriages were shown on their side and several rail routes were suspended, with passengers advised to seek alternative routes. The Rail Accident Investigation Branch has opened an inquiry, and Greater Thameslink Railway's CEO said derailments are rare and the railway remains safe while investigations continue. » More on theguardian.com
