Recommended service - hourly, according to the GWRUS. Let's work towards that service and towards ensuring all services are used.

A daredevil base jumper who calls himself Dangerous Dan has parachuted more than 100ft (30m) off a railway bridge used by Eurostar trains in Kent (link below.)

His jump off the Channel Tunnel Rail Link bridge in Rochester on Wednesday has been condemned by police and rail bosses as highly dangerous.

If caught, he risks prosecution for trespassing on the railway bridge and breaking through gates.

Officials are looking through CCTV footage in the hope of identifying him.

In February, the same man parachuted 98ft (29m) from the coastbound carriageway of the M2 bridge over the River Medway.
