I just witnessed a London Liverpool street service plough through the M25 motorway - about 40 miles south of it's typical route and 5 miles south of the nearest actual railway. Dozens of the trains seem to be traversing through the English channel/La Manche towards the north sea.
In fact the number of trains actually tracking a rail line (and this is outside of the cities where the tube/metro might obscure this) seems in the minority. Most seem to be going straight through the middle of farmers fields on some obscure course unrelated to theirs.

Even if there were no such thing as GPS, simply the act of running a fleet of trains or trucks or buses on a schedule, means that anyone could do a bit of math and roughly calculate the position of every vehicle based solely on the schedule.
The reality is the illusion of pinpoint accuracy is a figment of this site's imagination; this site is using some creative license to guess the precise location of trains.
(probably an inappropriate place for a joke, but at least it's about trains)
The Isle of Man has a curious relationship with the UK. As a Manxman once said to me, the government there is British when it feels like it and not British when it feels like it.
Of course the black people were let go. After all, they did nothing wrong, they just assaulted a white guy.
The family not only lost their son, but then had to see his name used to further the global hatred of the farage types

81% of the UK is white
70% of murder victims were male.
So reality is that white people are less likely to be murdered than non-white people, and women are less likely to be murdered than men.
Henry Nowak was killed because he was white.
Vikram Digwa and his brothers followed him because he was white.
They stabbed him because he was white.
They called the police on him after stabbing him because he was white.
They said he was being racist because he was white, and the police believed them because he was white.
The police arrested him because he was white, and the police didn't believe him after he'd been stabbed because he was white.
The police let him drown in his own blood because he was white.
That's a pretty common racist dogwhistle, propagated by groups like Farage's Russian owner.
Out of curiousity, where are you from? I find it interesting where only people who get so exercised about the UK get their info from...
