How many trains fail across the country in the course of a normal day,
resulting in pax detraining? Is it really as newsworthy as the BBC seem to
think?

In fairness, it is causing some very severe delays. It started just after 9
o'clock this morning and is still going on now. Considering that both White
City and Ruislip have depots, I am surprised that there are so few trains
running between those stations (and Ealing Broadway) in peak time this
evening. They can't have all the trains the other side of London; the
westbound service also came to a halt this morning because the trains were
stacking up. So where have all these trains gone?
