Thanks for this update. I dare not tell my wife
Definitely better not tell her that they have now limped to York, three hours late, only to be told the train is now cancelled and won't be going any further....

On a more positive note, a restored A4 steam locomotive has just passed them, in full steam, heading north. You honestly couldn't make it up
