The wife of another clergyman was quite seriously injured in the crash. He said a memorial service to commemorate those who died in the accident would be held at York Minster after the funerals of the victims had taken place. A chef on the GNER train, Paul Taylor, from Newcastle, was also confirmed dead. In a statement, Mr Taylor's wife Lee and his mother Mavis said their thoughts were with Land Rover driver, Gary Hart, and his family. We do not blame the car driver involved in the accident and we are thinking of him and his family.
Insurance claims by victims of the rail crash are likely to run into tens of millions of pounds.
Mr Hart, the driver of the Land Rover that veered off the motorway and into the path of the intercity train, was covered by Fortis Insurance Limited. At this stage it is impossible to estimate the total cost of the claims, although we expect it to run into tens of millions of pounds.
