Train delayed due to the late arrival of my late husband - he was an engine driver, you know.

Sometime around 1986 or so there really was a train delayed by an emu somewhere north of Broxbourne. Provided a useful bit of inspiration for the Chingford depot cartoonist...

I saw that in reality too - had a MOM, the P-Way and an RSPCA Inspector running round for half an hour until the offending Swan was apprehended.
