In the first crash, the Liverpool-bound troop train had smashed head-on into the waiting local train headed north. Some soldiers manage to free themselves and uninjured troops arriving from the back of the train helped the injured onto any space they could find. Then, only one minute after the crash, came a second disaster as the Glasgow-bound express ploughed into the wreckage and the troops trapped inside – setting the wreckage on fire – and into those laying on the tracks.
