Weird/Crazy News: Man is fined for causing Rush hour by sleeping on Train Tracks

LONDON (Reuters) - A drunken businessman who fell asleep on a railway track causing rush hour disruption was sentenced to 180 hours' community service on Friday.

Network Rail staff took half an hour to try and wake company director Kevin Craswell after he passed out on a line near Epsom last March after drinking a large amount of vodka.

Video pictures taken by a police helicopter showed him using the track as a pillow with a train passing near his head on another line.

Rail services were disrupted for about four hours during the afternoon rush hour.

Craswell, 48, from Ashtead in Surrey, was given an 18 months' community order in addition to the community service and ordered to pay 560 pounds compensation at Redhill magistrates.

He had pleaded guilty last month to "obstructing the railway by neglect".

I'm prone to doing things like that while drunk. I must say, he looked very comfy.

They couldn't just pick him up off the tracks?

Not just you, anyone.

"Plane crash kills 50". Yes? What do you expect us to say? "Bad isn't it?" "Yeah.".

Pointless threads.
