Parents outraged as 'Peppa Pig train' used for porn film

Families have spoken of their disgust after learning a historic railway often used for children's themed events was also used as the set for a porn film.

The Epping Ongar Railway in Essex sees large crowds of families visiting to ride the train with various characters like Peppa Pig, Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.

But the railway company has come under fire for allowing a Canadian company to film a pornographic video featuring a brunette in a school uniform having sex on one of the trains.

The Inquisitr reports that the "shocking" adult footage came to the attention of parents just days before the railway's annual Easter egg hunt.

One angry mum said: "They advertise it as a family-based business but one minute it's Peppa Pig and Father Christmas and the next it's an orgy train.

"It makes you wonder what went on in the train. If you are advocating something as a business for families you can't do that - it's not on, I am mortified.

"As a mother, I would be reluctant to take my kids on there again knowing that has gone on. I think it's disgusting."

Offering a different point of view was a writer from the Guardian, who blasted: "Were the parents suggesting their children would be damaged by being in a place where people had had sex? Because if so, it's a shame they came through their mother's vaginas.

"We should warn them to stay away from their parents' bedrooms. And bathrooms. We should warn them to stay out of that playground by the library with the rubber flooring around the swings. Also: the library. Definitely never, ever go to Disneyland."

However, the railway company has apologised and insists nothing similar will happen there again.

According to the Mirror, spokesman Dean Walton said: "We have made the railway available for commercial hire on a number of occasions to generate money for our projects and running the trains.

"Earlier this year we took a decision to allow an adult film, subject to certain conditions, to be filmed on the railway.

"We are sorry that our decision may have caused offence. It is clear that this decision was an error of judgement.

"We can confirm that we have put in place a policy to refuse any further approaches for this kind of production."
