A similar crash at Newton Abbot happened about 15 years ago.
A stopper from Paington ran into NA a Paddington train was in the platform no one was killed the driver of the stopper was take to hospital.
The cause was put down to the driver been on long hours plus he had another driver traveling to Exeter riding in the front cab.
