passed this earlier and just had to take pic . the arm of the mini digger on the back of the lorry caught the bridge stopping the truck dead . the digger is wrecked , the cab was crushed and the arm was twisted .i wouldnt like to be the driver trying to explain that to the boss

. sorry for the poor quality of the pic but it was taken thro my bus windscreen with my phone balanced on the dash due to traffic police everywhere

we're not that advanced up the valleys , we just about got a "normal" rail system

, its a footbridge for school children to use to get across the busy road and its lucky it was half term cos it happened around lunch time when kids would have been using it , that would have scared the sh*t out of them mind
