Cllr Julie Leigh, Leader of Bassetlaw District Council said:
“My thoughts are very much with those who have been affected by the incident which took place over the weekend on the LNER London bound train which had stopped to pick up passengers at Retford Station.
“I can only imagine the impact this has had on everyone involved, including passengers and staff who were just going about their daily lives.
“I would also like to pay tribute to the on-board crew and several passengers who bravely stepped in to protect others, and our emergency services for their response as events unfolded.”
