Just Eat driver tosses delivery into stranded Thameslink

The clip, posted on X, shows the driver standing at trackside level and accurately throwing several items through the open doors of a stationary Thameslink train positioned on raised track above.

People can be seen waiting in the trains doorway ready to catch the items and other passengers watch from the railings. 

Cheers can be heard when a successful throw and catch is made.

The incident took place during a major service failure on June 21, when a train fault between London Blackfriars and Herne Hill left multiple services immobilised in extreme heat.

Around 1,800 passengers were eventually evacuated with assistance from emergency services. Temperatures reached 33C during the disruption, and many of the stranded carriages were without air conditioning.

Earlier that day, a spokesperson for Govia Thameslink Railway and Network Rail said: “Earlier today, a fault on a train near Loughborough Junction brought all services to a halt in the area, three of them outside station platforms.

“Without power and air conditioning on such a hot day, we pulled all resources from across Sussex and Kent to get personnel on site to safely evacuate passengers as quickly as possible along the track.

“This would have been a difficult and uncomfortable experience for our passengers and we are truly sorry.”

British Transport Police said officers were called just before 11am and assisted in the evacuation.

London Fire Brigade confirmed it sent 25 firefighters to the scene to help passengers disembark.

We have approached Just Eat for further comment.
