What seemed like just a few Seconds changed the
entire life of 29 year
old Diana Morgan-Hill who had her own
flourishing PR firm in
London..
A vibrant young and energetic firm owner within a
matter of Seven
Seconds became a double amputee as she
dashed to catch up a train is a
rush to see a friend in 1990.
Still reminiscing about all the tragedy and pain,
Unknowingly to Diana
More torture was on its way as Just seven days
after the accident,
when she was still in hospital, traumatised and
heavily sedated,
the rail company announced its intention to sue
Diana.
Its aim was to invoke a 100-year-old by-
law and prosecute her for trespassing on the
railway line.
It's Been 25 years since the incident, Diana who
has written a book
about it shares her story below:
'My fight with what was then British Rail was
worse even than losing my legs,'
'I'd just come out of intensive care. I'd lost my
mobility; I'd nearly lost my life and BR put out a
press statement saying they were suing me. The
cruelty was astounding.'
'My new business was going well and I was
enjoying myself,' she says. 'That evening I was
going to meet a friend for supper and I wasn't in
a rush.
'But as I walked over the bridge at Wandsworth
Common station, the 6.29pm train to Victoria was
pulling in. I knew I'd have to wait half an hour if I
missed it, so I ran down the stairs and across the
platform to the train.
'I had my right foot on the running board (the
step under the door) and was raising the other
when the train jerked ferociously and pulled away.
My right foot slipped, I clung to the doorframe
and then the train jolted again.
'Then my left leg dropped below the running
board and I fell into the gap between the platform
and the train. I was wedged there, crushed,
terrified, and the train moved on.
'Four hundred tons of metal were rolling against
me, crushing my ribs — they were all broken —
and I screamed: "Stop the train!" But it just
picked up speed and carried on moving.




'Then a wheel caught my right leg and I was
pulled down. I felt a tugging sensation, then
nothing. When I came to, the train had stopped
and I was trapped underneath it.




'I knew my left leg had gone because it was
under the wheel of the train. Then 650 volts of
electricity from the train line hit me, and the pain
was obliterating.
