Tonight, I was booked on the 20.41 from Preston to Carlisle ( 18.30 ex London Euston). In light of last-minute cancellations on Avanti services lately, I kept an eye on Euston departures on RTT. Sure enough at about 5pm it showed up as cancelled, followed about 15 mins later with an alert from The trainline website. I was able to catch an earlier train instead.
20--25 years I guess I would just have turned up at Preston station to find my train canceled and all that might have followed from that.
