Wild Boar Blocks The Railway, Railway Service Interrupted

Sometimes, all it takes to stop a whole complex system from working is just one thing, and that’s just what happened in the Scottish rail service. The trains were stopped because there was a wild boar blocking the railroad.

ScotRail tweeted Thursday evening that the line between Glasgow Central and Larkhall was being blocked in Wishaw by an animal on the tracks.

“There’s a pig (yes, you read that right) on the line at Wishaw,” ScotRail tweeted. The tweet said National Rail officials and police were attempting to capture the animal.

A later tweet clarified that officials had been “advised that the beast involved is in fact a wild boar.”

Thankfully, the railway service resumed later in the evening. It wasn’t stated, however, if the boar was caught, or if it just wandered away from the railroad.
