"Man airlifted to hospital after Stourbridge Junction train drama
POLICE, paramedics, the fire service, and the Air Ambulance flooded Stourbridge Junction after a man was hit by a train this evening (Wednesday August 26).
The incident happened shortly before 5.30pm.
The man, believed to be aged around 30, was rescued from under a train, anaesthetised at the scene and was airlifted to Birmingham's Selly Oak Hospital.
A West Midlands Ambulance Service rapid response vehicle, incident support officer, Warwickshire and Northamptonshire Air Ambulance, and several members of the Hazardous Area Response Team (HART) were sent to the scene, along with West Midlands Police officers and fire crews from Stourbridge, Brierley Hill and West Bromwich.
Incident support officer, Martin Eaton, said: When we arrived, we found a man who was trapped under a train; he was conscious but had suffered serious injuries.
The HART team, working with colleagues from the Fire and Rescue Service, started treating him in situ while they worked on extricating him.
He was placed onto the platform where the doctor from the Warwickshire and Northamptonshire Air Ambulance anaesthetised him due to the serious injuries to his head, chest and lower limbs. He was then airlifted to the Regional Trauma Centre at Selly Oak Hospital where medics were on standby for his arrival."

I submitted my photos exclusively to The Stourbridge News, no other news websites/papers got photos. This is one of them. None of my photos show the man or the spot where the accident happened. All photos are of the emergency vehicles and station/trains.

It was great having them over again (this was the 3rd visit) and big thanks to Yorkshire Ambulance Service for permission for them to come and ‘observe’ out with me on the Response Car and with crews on Ambulances from Middlewood & Longley Stations.
We are organising some return visits over there sometime later this year.

The new Paramedic minifig, with new hat/hair piece, on a search and rescue mission. Nothing serious - just a minifigure who wandered too far away from my kitchen counter. The minifig was rescued safely :-)
