    The signal box at Sheringham suffered significant firedamage today after a blaze tore through three cars on a town Centre car park.

    Anyone know why this link opens via Facebook? I have no major objection to Facebook on principle, but this link looks as though it's direct to 'www.edp24.co.uk/etc' but actually links via Facebook, allowing them to track your visit.

    Most importantly the two guys working in or around the box are safe and ok if a bit shaken. It could've been a lot worse and the damage done can be repaired.

    and I presume the costs should be covered by the owner's car insurance as well.
