A man who made hoax calls about bombs at railway stations in an attempt to get time off work has been jailed for two-and-a-half years.

Stewart Monk, 28, of Ackerley Court, Ashford, Kent, worked as an on-board trolley steward for Rail Gourmet on trains between Kent and London.

He admitted making 11 false bomb threats concerning London Charing Cross and Ashford International stations.

Maidstone Crown Court heard how his calls caused chaos for commuters.
