Parents have been urged to talk to their children about the dangers of antisocial behaviour and trespassing on railway lines after a shocking video captured the moment youths threw a bike onto the tracks.
CCTV footage at Cross Gates station in Leeds showed the two boys attempting to obstruct the railway lines in an act Network Rail warned could have caused a derailment — putting the lives of passengers at risk.
Sharing the 57-second clip to their Twitter, Network Rail branded the children’s actions as "absolutely shocking" and said it not only posed a risk to their own lives but also put "so many others in danger".
