Great Western Railway says a window seal was 'damaged by an object' near Newport.
The window shattered on to seats that had been cordoned off after passengers alerted train staff to a loose seal
Great Western Railway said a seal was damaged by an object as the Southampton to Cardiff train arrived in Newport on Wednesday morning.The operator said it was working with rail safety investigators and no-one was seriously hurt. Passenger Roger Luke said he noticed a rubber seal knocking near the window as the train left the Severn Tunnel coming into Wales.When another train passed in the opposite direction, he said it seemed to create a vacuum that sucked the window out.
Sarah said: "It was quite scary. I originally thought the flapping was a branch in the tunnel. I went to inform the guard, she was very good and started taping off the area."
