A train in Derry was forced to come to a dramatic stop yesterday after adults were spotted drinking on the railway line.
Police say they were called to respond twice to two separate incidents on the train line.
The incidents occurred in the Lisahally and Strathfoyle areas of the city.
A spokesperson for the PSNI said: "This evening, police located a group of adults drinking along the railway, as well a group of young people.
"Thankfully, our colleagues in the control room acted quickly and in conjunction with Northern Ireland Railway, they were able to slow and then eventually stop a train a short distance from these groups, to allow us to safely remove everyone from the line.
"This follows several similar reports in recent weeks and months in this area, as well at Waterfoot Park and in the area of Station Road, Eglinton."
They added: "We would like to remind people of the huge dangers involved in entering the area of any railway track or the banks of the Foyle.
"It is not an appropriate place to enjoy the sunshine or a good place to have a drink.
"It creates a massive risk to everyone involved in removing you from the area, and to the staff and passengers on the rail network."
