I think I must have been rather unlucky this last week - either that or the railway system really isn’t doing very well, which doesn’t bode well for the future.
On five of the last seven days I’ve had multiple cancellations, delays and/or speed restrictions due to windy weather. It seems we’re going to have to be able to cope with this sort of thing better as we’ll probably be getting more of this sort of thing as time goes on.
In addition to that, I’ve also had a missed connection due to a broken down train blocking a platform, a delay of an hour due to someone throwing a bicycle on the track, and an emergency stop due to a signalling fault.
As a snapshot of a week on the railway, it really isn’t terribly encouraging. Hopefully it really is just a case of having continually been in the wrong place at the wrong time...
