The train with thousands of passengers slowly rolled on the rails, without knowing what had happened there. Though this man performed his duty honestly he lost his only loving son. With extreme lamentation, he pulled out his son's body parts from the machine and held it close to his chest and cried bitterly. British Government honored him greatly and in memory of this incident they placed the picture at the entrance of the bridge.
This story is highly scattered all around the internet although at various forum discussions it has been seen that the above story is false. The bridge requires twelve people, six on each side, to manually operate its moving sections. Also, there is no such picture at the entrance of the bridge. And neither is this story known to locals as fact or hearsay from previous generations. The story seems to have been entirely manufactured on the internet.
The earliest known version of the story appears as Christian propaganda, and since then the story has been spread in many Catholic schools. The propaganda attempts to draw a parallel between the father's alleged sacrifice of his son, and the sacrifice of the Christian God in sending his son Jesus down to Earth. The propaganda itself, created in 2008, was not original, and was based off an award-winning 2003 Czech film, Most.
