    A forthcoming report into the fatal Cumbria rail crash earlier this year will expose a 'culture of safety shortcuts'.

    One person died and dozens were wounded when the London to Glasgow Virgin Trains service derailed at Grayrigg on February 23rd.

    A preliminary report by the Rail Accident Investigation Branch (RAIB) found that the Pendolino train came off the tracks due to faulty stretcher bars.

    And now the Guardian claims that a further probe by the British Transport police (BTP) will unveil a "catalogue of failings" in a damning indictment of safety on the UK's rail network.

    A senior industry source quoted by the newspaper suggests that rail bosses have learned no lessons from the Potters Bar crash of 2002 in which seven people died.
