It's a tragedy that someone feels so self destructive...but I wish these selfish idiots wouldn't involve the rest of the world...the poor train driver, the emergency services (who had to pick up the bits ) and hundreds of stranded passengers just trying to get home. And it's outrageous that the selfish act of a singe person is allowed to cause so much disruption, for such a long period of time.
