Memorial services are being held in Hertfordshire today to mark the 10th anniversary of the Potters Bar rail crash.
Seven people died when the fourth carriage of the London to Kings Lynn train came off the track and became wedged under the canopy at Potters Bar station.
The crash was blamed on a faulty set of points and Network Rail was last year fined £3 million after it admitted breaching health and safety regulations.
Six of the victims were passengers. The seventh, 80-year-old Agnes Quinlivan, was killed by falling debris as she walked near the station.
Friends and relatives of the victims are among those attending the services.
The first takes place at a memorial garden close to the scene of the crash and includes the laying of flowers and a minute’s silence at 12:56pm – the time the train derailed.
This will be followed by a second service at Our Lady and St Vincent church in Potters Bar.
