weeks. you might remember these astonishing pictures of the railway track in dawlish dangling in midair after the seawall was hit by an 80 mph wind and washed away. i remember it well because i was there reporting on it. in 2019 work started on construction of a new sea wall to protect the railway and local community. here isjohn local community. here is john maguire. a hairline crack appeared, and then throughout the day, itjust kept opening up and just kept opening up and the cracksjust got kept getting bigger and bigger. you were standing onjust, like, moving land when we were trying to move the fences because the fences were there and the crack was appearing and we were open at the time. didn t quite know what to do. and people were coming in. we couldn t afford to close, so we were just ferociously trying to fence it off as it was moving, so that it was not a danger to anyone.
