Most northbound FCC trains from 3rd rail land were running 5-10 mins late tonight. Supposed cause (according to FCC Twitter feed) was NR speed restrictions due to hot weather.
I know its been a over 20 degrees celsius today, but isn't that a bit of an overreaction? Or have the risk-averse taken control at Network Rail. If the rails are capable of buckling at 22 degrees celsius, then we'd better look forward to longer journeys until the end of September.
Can anyone in the know shed light (but not any more heat) on the topic?
