It is Meigh, not a surprise, but the rail line is straight for a good mile or more on the approach, you would imagine plenty of time to spot the car and stop

Train strikes car on Belfast to Dublin railway line
A train has struck an abandoned car on the main Belfast to Dublin rail line.

It happened near Meigh in County Armagh at around 0600 BST on Monday.

Translink said the railway is closed between Newry and Dundalk and bus substitutions are in place.

Traffic disruptions are expected and motorists are advised to seek alternative routes for their journey.
