<p>The workers were carrying out a track inspection on the west coast mainline south of Kirtlebridge, Dumfries and Galloway, when the incident happened at 9.02am on November 14.</p>
<p>Investigators said CCTV footage from the train showed the track workers moved clear just before it passed.</p>

<p>No-one was injured in the incident, which involved a Virgin Trains service.</p>
<p>The UK&#8217;s Rail Accident Investigation Branch (RAIB) has carried out a preliminary examination into the circumstances and plans to publish a safety report in the next few weeks.</p>
<p>It said in a statement on its website: “Having assessed the evidence which has been gathered to date, we have decided to publish a safety digest.</p>
<p>“The safety digest will be made available on our website in the next few weeks.”</p>
<p>A Network Rail spokesman said: “We take the safety of our engineers seriously and work closely with the RAIB.</p>
<p>“We have carried out our own internal investigation into this incident and will carefully review the RAIB digest when published.”</p>
<p>A Virgin Trains spokesman declined to comment.</p>
