A sick individual commited suicide by parking his car on a train track a few years ago in the UK (Ufton Nervet) which killed 6 people in addition to himself. And a parent trying to commit suicide taking their children with them isn't completely unheard of either. I find it ironic that in the UK railways' obsession with safety, in this century, most rail travellers have been killed by car drivers, putting their car on the tracks through intention, or by falling asleep at the wheel. -- (*) of the royal duchy of city south and deansgate -www.davidhorne.net (email address on website) "If people think God is interesting, the onus is on them to show that there is anything there to talk about.

(Although an episode of one of the various incarnations of TV's "CSI" TV here had someone committing "murder by suicide" - the perpetrator landed on an innocent bystander who was exiting the building, killing the bystander, but walking away from the scene, himself.) |

As quoted above Evelyn wrote: SFAIK, it's "illegal" most places (as is suicide), but if the attempt is successful, the "legality" is moot, n'est-ce pas? and you replied: It's not moot if you're the victim of someone's suicide, which can happen. So what were you talking about? |
