When a driver calls to report a delay and gives an estimated time of departure, if that time comes and he was further dalayed he used to call up again and report delayed for another 5-10mins (possibly other times aswell) longer, however I cannot recall ever getting these since the update to loader 4.6.5, I have had what appears to be further delays to a number of trains but, I cannot recall a single phone call from the driver informing me of such, and a number of them have been over 5 mins, more in the region of 10 mins plus.

Related to this, I've sometimes seen trains which are due to stable in a platform for several *hours* call up on arrival to say they'll be delayed on departure. Often the reason given is one that couldn't possibly become apparent until much closer to departure time, and in general I would expect such calls usually to come in reasonably close to due time.
