to rest down an embankment to the east side of the track, in a field adjacent to the railway line just south of the second overbridge. The trailing locomotive of the passenger train was derailed but remained upright and suffered only minor damage. The freight locomotive lost its bogies after impact, with debris from the DVT jammed underneath, rupturing its fuel tank. It overturned onto its left side, coming to rest in the garden of a residence adjacent to the line to the north of the bridge. The first nine wagons following it were derailed and damaged to varying extents. Two wagons that left the line with the freight locomotive flattened a caravan and garage on the grounds of the house all three came to rest in, but stopped short of striking the house itself.
518:. He pleaded not guilty. The prosecution alleged that Hart had fallen asleep while driving, after having spent five hours the previous night on the phone to a woman he had met through an advert on an internet dating agency. He had been on the phone call from 21:48 and 02:58, and sent text messages between 03:11 and 03:57. He did not get any sleep before leaving his house and starting his journey 90 minutes after the end of the phone call. As part of their investigation, the police tried to replicate the drive, which was 65 mi (105 km) in 70 minutes. With a police escort, and after going like a "bat out of hell", they completed the journey with two minutes to spare.

The report added "Its design does not appear to complement the crashworthy considerations that guide the construction of passenger vehicles that use the same rail network."

Hart denied the allegations, saying that he did not fall asleep, and he would have pulled over if he were tired.
