So it's your fault the trains were so screwed yesterday, thanks a bunch! 

no you shouldn't, dirty train passengers, I swear they see orange people on track and aim for us.
yes. and if it's going fast it turns into a huge cloud.So do the jobbies and liquid just get released from the train and onto the tracks when the toilet is flushed?![]()
Everyone's first thought surely?OK, confess...what did you say to cause the trouble this time?
yes. and if it's going fast it turns into a huge cloud.
And yes I have been peed on numerous time. luckily never had solids though.
Apparently, one of the engineers has been electrocuted.
I take it you are a railway engineer Acid?
I'll hitch a ride then![]()
They manage to repair the line yesterday by noon. However, a few hours later.. a freight train derailed on the same line
hahahaha - buses replaced trains - What a week.
Is this line cursed?A railway line linking London to East Anglia, beset by major delays over the past few days, has faced new problems after a freight train derailed.
National Express East Anglia services between Colchester and Marks Tey have been hit by delays of up to 45 minutes after the derailment in the afternoon.
Network Rail said replacement bus services between Colchester and Witham were being brought in.
There had been no estimate as to when normal services would be resumed.
The route affected runs from London Liverpool Street to Norwich, via Ipswich and Colchester.
Earlier there had been disruption on the line while repair work was carried out on overhead cables which came down near Ingatestone in Essex on Monday.
Three workers were injured while carrying out the repairs to the power cables on the line on Wednesday night.
They fell up to 20ft to the ground from an elevated platform and were kept in hospital overnight.
The East of England Ambulance Service said one man had suffered head and chest injuries and another suffered minor leg injuries.
A third man, who suffered head injuries, was flown to Queen's Hospital, Romford.
British Transport Police said an investigation was under way.
Mmm was carnage at Liv. St yesterday afternoon - overhead line problems at Chelmsford as well as London Fields means not many trains leaving!!! Fortunately living in Seven Sisters, despite being a slightly rough old area, has probably the best transport links compared to anywhere in London I can think of - Victoria line tube, overland to City and at a push a 45 minute bus ride to the City
PS Huddy now be honest, what really happened, that's quite impressive bringing down a mile of cable![]()
both, as well as things like broken rails and objects on track.Is derailing generaly down to maintenance that needs to be done not being done?? Or is it due to track and points assumed to be fine failing??
