Another embarassing day for Network Rail, and the train operators that rely on it. And a day for working at home for some of us. Just thinking about it makes me exhausted, and I didn’t even set foot out of the door today.
As ‘delayed’ reports on the radio turned into ‘severe delay’ snippets (and then ‘don’t bother turning out’ statements,) and with National Express East Anglia blaming Network Rail, and Network Rail blaming National Express East Anglia, yet again the East of England train ‘service’ soon slipped into a farce.
Thinking about it, it’s just as well we’re away one of the Bank Holidays in May.
(*It was a signal failure when the line was restarted, apparently.)
