    I've just been told my the station supervisor about this incident. The driver did not phone the signaller after he went through the signal you have to treat the signal as a red if you have gone through it with out TWPS. the driver has been taken off trains and he could be fired. Im telling the full truth that I have been told by the staff at dover priory. Someone saw this video and report it to management at Dover and with southeastern.
