Rail companies fined £300,000
Two rail companies, Network Rail Infrastructure Ltd (NRIL) and Balfour Beatty Rail Infrastructure Services Ltd (BBRIS), were fined a total of £300,000 last month for breaches of health and safety law.
The prosecutions followed an investigation into the death of four-year-old Bobby Wood, who was electrocuted after gaining access to a live rail in Strood, Kent on 15 June 1999. Both companies had pleaded guilty to the charges at a hearing in June 2003.
