My uncle was at various times a CO/CP and an A60/62 driver. He told of
a time when he entered a station (I think Euston Square) fast - as he
should have done - but there was a twit on the platform standing just
inside the station on the edge of the platform with this hands on his
hips.

The grab bar on the front of his CO/CP hit the chap's elbow with a
resounding 'BONG', and the elbow's owner span back onto the platform.

I bet his eyes watered! But no attempt at a claim for compensation.

You didn't get compensation for your own stupidity in those days.
