Just for fun, but I think the royal mail should have a talk with their drivers. I've got one who took a toilet brake from 05:35 to 15:55! It must have been a thick newspaper that day? Post has attachments. Log in to view them. Log in to reply |

There's an actual issue behind that, though, in that currently delays are only ever generated upon arrival, never upon departure or at some point in-between, regardless of how far in the future the departure is.
Two million people attempt to use Birmingham's magnificent rail network every year, with just over a million of them managing to get further than Smethwick. Log in to reply |

I just had a pair of 156s, operated by Northern, hold up the Down Fast for 40 mins - because they had "the wrong kind of food trolley". Which they apparently discovered only at the penultimate stop on the journey. "There's something wrong with our food trolley!" "W-what? What is it?" "We have one." Log in to reply |

I think I've said this before: delay reasons are tongue-in-cheek and not to lose sleep over.

Maybe its time for a competition for some new and "interesting" delay reasons to be suggested, with the best ones added into the game? the same with user worked crossings.
