Another death on the Merseyrail Northern Line
Photos - UK-Press-Photography.com

JUST a week after Yasmin Jones, 22, who had just graduated from Liverpool John Moores University with a 2:1, Drama Degree was killed by train whilst trying to save her dog from the railway line, another incident has happened on the same line. The latest incident on Merseyrail's Northern Line also happened near to Freshfield Station, but at this stage these are being treated as unrelated incidents. British Transport Police have confirmed that a man died near Barkfield Lane, in between Freshfield and Formby Merseyrail Stations.

A British Transport Police (BTP) spokesman said:- "I can confirm that the person struck and killed by a train close to Freshfield crossing on Tuesday, 2 September 2014, was a 26 year old man from Formby. The incident was first reported to us at 10.40am and our officers attended alongside colleagues from Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service, North West Ambulance Service and Merseyside Police. The incident is not being treated as suspicious and officers are compiling a report for the coroner. The man’s family have been informed.” Police have not released the name of the 26 year male to the media at the time this was published.
