On Monday evening, a tragic train crash claimed the life of Tudor Evans, a 66-year-old man from Aberystwyth, West Wales. He was on his way home from a holiday when the two trains collided, causing his untimely death. The incident also left 15 others injured, but thankfully, they were safely evacuated from the trains.
Tudor was a passionate mountain biker, and his friend Iestyn Leyshon remembers him fondly. They had known each other for 20 years, but their shared love for biking brought them even closer in the last four years. Iestyn expressed his deep sadness at the loss of his friend, knowing that he would never see Tudor riding his bike again.
Tudor and his wife Rachel had recently begun to travel after many years of hard work. They were enjoying their well-deserved holiday in Italy when tragedy struck. The sudden loss of Tudor has left his family and friends devastated, and they have asked for privacy during this difficult time. They also expressed their gratitude for the kind messages and support they have received from well-wishers.
The crash also left the driver of one of the trains and a conductor injured. The driver was taken to a hospital in Shrewsbury with significant injuries, while the conductor suffered a fracture. According to Transport for Wales' chief operating officer, Jan Chaudhry-Van Der Velde, both of them are receiving medical care and are expected to recover.
The incident has caused major disruptions to the Cambrian line between Machynlleth and Shrewsbury, which has been closed as investigators work to determine the cause of the collision. The closure is expected to remain in place until at least the end of the day on Friday. This is just one of the many disruptions across the Transport for Wales network this week, as slippery rails caused by falling leaves have affected several lines.
