*Live Shell on British Railway,

An alarming discovery-was made on December 31 at Bromley Bouth Station, on the South Eastern Railway, a live shell, about air inches long, being picked up from the permanent |way. The shell, which was lying only a foot or two away from the up main line, was found by a portar. It is not known whether The shell had been deliberately alsosd on the line or had fallen from a passing train.
