Three Yorkshire land train passengers were injured and its driver was left visibly shaken after braking to avoid hitting a dog.

Injuries included a bloodied nose and swollen wrists following the incident on Sewerby Cliff top. The dog’s owner was around 100m away at the time of the incident on Friday . East Riding Council’s Coastal Services team said drivers would always try to avoid hitting loose dogs but they would take no responsibility if one is ever injured or killed.

The Coastal Services team said: “The driver had to brake harshly to avoid hitting the dog. “The train just missed the dog, which ran straight back to the owner who was estimated to be approximately 100m away when the incident occurred. The owner, who may have been oblivious to the incident, headed away from the incident towards Sewerby. “The land train driver was visibly shaken by the incident but followed the correct procedure.
