Train hits trampoline after Storm Dudley blows it onto tracks

A train was delayed by nearly two hours after it hit a trampoline that had been blown onto the tracks.

The 14.22 Swansea to London Paddington service collided with the trampoline just outside Cardiff Central at around 3.20pm on Wednesday (February 16) afternoon.

The netted trampoline became wedged under the front of the train, which was stuck for around an hour and 55 minutes while engineers worked hard to free the obstacle.
