Flying trampoline halts high-speed train

A German high-speed train was forced to make an emergency stop when a trampoline was blown on to the tracks from a nearby garden, police said on Wednesday.

The Intercity Express (ICE) was traveling from Cologne to Vienna and was forced to stop outside Bonn, Cologne police spokesman Frank Freund said in a statement. "The ICE only came to a halt 300 yards after the blockage," Freund said. The train sustained damage to its front lights but after checks was allowed to continue. - yahoo
