Phil walked into his parents lounge and sat down on the couch. He picked up the remote and turned the TV on. The screen opened on the news. 

'And we have a new update on the crash that happened at 9pm last night' the news presenter said sinisterly. Phil listened intently. 

'A London Midlands service train has crashed while on its way to the capital city. The crash happened at approximately 9:07pm just outside of Wolverhampton'. The news presenter paused momentarily. 

'The train was carrying 214 people when it crashed and was 2 hours and 19 minutes through the four hour journey. As to why this train crashed, investigators are still unsure but they are working on finding an answer' the presenter said. 

'The train started its journey in Manchester and was on its way to London. The train pulled away from Manchester train station at 6:06pm. It is unclear as to how many passengers have died, but we do know that only around half survived. All others with injuries have been taken to the Wolverhampton hospital. We are praying for those who have lost their lives and are here to help any families affected by the tragedy. We will bring you more in this story in half an hour. Back to the studio for some sport'

Phil turned off the television. He had a sinking feeling in his heart. 6:06pm this train left Manchester. Dan had walked away from him at around 6 and the train station wasn't that far away from the park. Dan had said he didn't know where the train was going. Phil had a bad feeling about this.
