I'm aware that when the signaller receives a phone call about a train being delayed at a station, that the reason for the delay is selected at random from a list.

I had to chuckle when playing a Carlisle sim, because at 12:54 I received a call to say that a train was delayed because the driver needed a toilet break.
The train wasn't due to depart until 14:35, so this poor driver required in excess of 90 minutes to perform this task.
Perhaps he should see a doctor 🤣

Everything that you make will be useful - providing it's made of chocolate.

Quite a few years back a driver on a Freightliner working pulled up to the signal at Preston, requesting he needed a PNB for the loo. As he was around 30-40 Mins early it was agreed. Driver spend the full 30min in the loo with an upset stomach in the end he was relived. Train left 70Mins later.
