Yep, that's my home town for you!

You can tell that she isn't a Barnsley woman though, she is wearing far too many clothes for this time of year and isn't drunk enough!

A real case of "mind the gap"!

Pretty awful actually..........

Maybe she isn't drunk, maybe she's just gone down there to check the tyres

She's very lucky!!
Mind you, I watched the clip and it shows it twice, so at first I thought one woman fell down and then her friend came off the train and did the same, falling on top of the first one!

without the camera footage she may have gone un-noticed,dread to think what might have happened then!

I remember my gran telling me how she had once fallen onto the train track as a girl, she had lain still between the rails, and the train ran right over her without harming her at all! That happened at Barnsley train station as well (it was in the 1920s, her dad worked at the signal box), so maybe it's a doomed station!
