Ok today was an interesting day to say the least for everybody concerned.
At approx 08:00 this morning reports started coming through that the Overhead lines had failed between Peterborough and Sandy. I belived that this would be a minor delay and services would have slight delays on them.
At 08:15 GNER suspended ALL services between Peterborough and London Kings Cross. There was a replacement Coach service between Peterborough and Stevenage set up for travelers in either direction. People had to change at Stevenage for a FCC Train Service to and from London Kings Cross. I have had reports from all parts of the line that there were staff on hand at Sandy, Stevenage, Peterborough and Kings Cross and most of the reports I have heard were good.
At around 12:00 the lines were re-opened and services were able to start getting back to normal, there were a few later GNER cancelations.

The 7.20 out of Peterborough was stuck on the down fast at Huntingdon until about 11.35 or so: instructions from control we weren’t allowed off for safety reasons (which didn’t go down well).
