A MAN has admitted having drunken sex with a plastic CONE in a train station lift.

Oddball Trevor Smith, 38, was spotted by stunned rail staff sitting in a lift with his trousers and pants around his ankles and a cleaning cone on his lap.

Smith has pled guilty to outraging public decency after the bizarre incident at Wigan North Western train station on April 14.

A court heard how a Virgin Trains team leader saw a sozzled Smith sitting on the floor with the cone turned upside down on his lap.

The stunned witness saw Smith "appearing to have sex and thrusting his hips" at the cone.

The station worker contacted cops before a British Transport Police officer arrived and found Smith still romping in the lift.

Drunken Smith realised he had been caught in the act when he pulled his trousers up before being helped to his feet by the officer.

The officer saw white powder around his lower face and what appeared to be further drugs on the lift's floor.

The court heard Smith said he had been drinking heavily that day, watching football, and that he suffered from diabetes and depression.

He said all he could remember was heading home on the train and going into the lift thinking he was in a locked room.

Wigan Magistrates' Court heard Smith was extremely apologetic and has previous convictions for outraging public decency.

Smith, of St Helens, Merseyside, pleaded guilty to outraging public decency and was remanded on unconditional bail ahead of sentencing later this month.
