Sorry, you're absolutely correct.

I wonder if there's something about that section of the East Coast
Main Line that's jinxed?

Rob.


Well, it's probably about as Jinxed as the Great West mainline out of
Paddington, or any other main line - as in, it's just very busy with a
lot of trains using it. Eventually something is going to go wrong, as
that's what happens with machinery. If only one train went along it a
month, it'd be longer between accidents (maybe) and so they'd happen
less often.

(In short, no, it's not).
