This shocking image shows the brutal injuries suffered by a train driver whose cab window was shattered after vandals launched a brick in Salford.
Ian Birch says he 'could have been killed' after his train was targeted as it travelled through Clifton at 70mph. He was left with cuts to the face but thankfully, he was able to bring the train to a halt safely.
Northern employee Mr Birch was helped by a doctor who was able to administer immediate first aid after the incident took place on Friday, February 4. Today (April 1), Northern has released the image as it continues to appeal for information while police continue their investigation.
