LONDON, Sept 18 (Reuters) - A train in Britain was cancelled after a pair of squirrels boarded the service and one refused to get off, Great Western Railway (GWR) said on Wednesday.
Staff tried to shoo the furry freeriders off when the train reached Redhill, Surrey, but one squirrel refused to disembark, GWR said.
“We can confirm that the 0854 Reading to Gatwick was terminated at Redhill after a couple of squirrels boarded the train at Gomshall without tickets, breaching railway byeclaws,” a spokesperson for the railway said.
“We attempted to remove them at Redhill, but one refused to leave and was returned to Reading to bring an end to this nutty tail,” they added.
“Oy, mate, you need a ticket!”
We have this problem in the back yard. The squirrels refuse to get out of the tree no matter how much my dog wants them to come down to grabbing and killing level. Fucking squirrels.
I think specifically the problem is they don’t want to help spread Grey Squirrels, who are an invasive species from North America.
As usual, the American tourist causes endless problems for their host country.
(I’m American but you have to admit that we suck as tourists.)
Oh, that’s where I left my emotional support squirrel.
Ah yes, tourists, well known for all the squirrels they bring on every trip
