Sunday night. Trying to get to Leeds and back again. 40 minuite
round trip. Various cancelliations. Delays. Lack of staff. No
drivers. Turned it into 5 hour matathron. With no staff knowing
what was going on or what to do. The only good thing is that the
staff sent half the passengers on the train I finally got home to
the wrong platform for a train that didn't exisit. So I actually
got a seat for once. Made me think I was in London again!


It's strange that a 5 hour delay makes you think of London. The most
I've ever been delayed on a train in London is about half an hour, and
that was years ago.
