A man in his 70s has died in hospital, over two weeks after he was involved in a coach crash at Carlisle Railway Station.
British Transport Police confirmed that the man, who has not been named, was taken to hospital after the incident on Thursday, November 30 but has since died.
A man in his 40s has been arrested in connection with the incident and has been released on bail.
The coach – used for rail replacement services – crashed into the left side of the entrance, outside the WH Smith outlet.
A spokesman for British Transport Police said that an investigation into the cause of the collision had been launched and was ongoing.
The railway station’s front entrance remains closed and it has been reported it will be months until it is reopened. A side entrance has been opened for passengers to use in the meantime.
