The Ticket Collector

Now its overhead problems in Huntingdon AGAIN.

July 23, 2007 on 11:44 am | In FCC, GNER, Notwork Rail |

Some people at notwork rail really need to be a)retrained b)sacked c)shot and shot again. It was only a few weeks ago when the overheads failed at Huntingdon before.

Services are subject to severe delays and possible short cancelations due to the Overheads failing in the Huntingdon area.
GNER are currently running to an amended timetable for the rest of today which can be download here. An hourly shuttle GNER HST diesel train service will operate between Peterborough and Stevenage calling at Huntingdon.

First Capital Connect will operate a replacement bus service between Peterborough and Huntingdon. Services from London will terminate at Huntingdon.

Notwork Rail currently hope to complete repairs by 1400 this afternoon. Normal services will resume as soon as possible after the line reopens.

13:10 A normal service has resumed.
Residual alterations and delays of up to 30 minutes can be expected until 16:00

  1. FCC were surpassing themselves in information dissemination this morning. Not only did they manage to text everybody to say the 0810 from Biggleswade was running, with a delay (it wasn’t running), they also managed - get this - to give information about trains a whole30 seconds before they entered the station.

    Which is great when you get a 4-car train pulling into Biggleswade, already full of 4 trains’ worth from Hunts.

    livedepartureboards and the station departure boards were all stating nonsense too, as was the FCC website.

    Is it that hard? Is it? Really?
