The BBC have news of a train that left Liverpool Street at 23:30 but broke down twice on the way to Norfolk, taking seven hours to get there with customers on board. It finally rolled in at 06:30, a good five hours late. :(

There had been trouble in finding a thunderbird to haul it along when it first broke down, and National Express say they didn't obtain a replacement bus as they believed the train would get to Norfolk successfully after the initial repairs.

What on earth have delays out of Euston got to do with NXEA services to Norwich?
