A service of remembrance was held yesterday for a boy and his grandfather who died when their car was struck by a train at a level crossing near Horsham.  A minute’s silence was held at St Nicholas Church in Itchingfield and a candle was lit during yesterday’s service.  

The man and his grandson were sadly pronounced dead at the scene following the crash at the Barns Green crossing on Saturday.  No one on the train was injured during the crash.  

Investigators from the Rail Accident Investigation Branch have attended the scene.
