By Andrew Robinson, 6 JAN 2024 rbbm.
''Twelve years ago this week a man stepped off the platform at Sowerby Bridge railway station, and was fatally struck by a Leeds-bound train.''

''The man was white, in his 40s or 50s and was about 5ft 8ins - 5ft 9ins tall, of a medium build, with collar-length dark, greying hair. He also had a moustache and false teeth.
He was dressed practically in distinctive khaki denim trousers with blue patches on the pockets, a green Primark shirt featuring Che Guevara, a blue ribbed Harbour Bay jumper, a black Cedarwood State body warmer with a hood, a khaki padded jacket, and a grey knitted hat.''

''He was also wearing a Manchester United scarf, and size 8 Tradesafe brown boots, so he might have worked on a building site or done manual work. He had a silver watch, a gold and silver metal chain, and a black leather coin purse, but his overall appearance suggests he could have fallen on hard times and may even have been homeless.''

Not sure about Sowerby, but Hebden Bridge is about 5 miles away and that definitely does.

That could be a good line of thinking.

Not really, it is basically all standard Primark low cost fashion. Cedar wood state is also a Primark brand. May look artsy but it is mass market fashion
