Into the pit

Arrived at my supervising station to find a battered looking visually impaired man sitting in the staff room. He’d fallen into the pit (on to the tracks) Though he was badly bruised, he was fairly fatalistic about the fall, but this station is extremely busy and the chances of his being run over high, so if anything the station staff were more shaken then he was. They’d rushed around at top speed, stopping the trains and pulling him out before an unlucky accident became a tragedy.
