Title: Train delays Wed 16 Jan Post by: Surrey 455 on January 22, 2013, 18:51:49 Can't see an existing thread about this but apparently there were problems that morning due to a train fault. I very rarely use that route any more so can't confirm it.
I was intrigued though by the Uxbridge Gazettes reporting of it. http://www.uxbridgegazette.co.uk/west-london-news/local-uxbridge-news/2013/01/16/train-trouble-from-west-drayton-113046-32611275/ That photo seems to show a very damaged HST. Was that the problem or have they just used an old unrelated photo? Title: Re: Train delays Wed 16 Jan Post by: LiskeardRich on January 22, 2013, 20:05:26 I think thats an archive photo. The picture is missing any kind of snow or ice to be recent!
