Monday Madness On The Gospel Oak To Barking Line
There has been an electrical failure on the Gospel Oak To Barking Line this morning.
So the service has been run by three Class 172 trains, working alone!
After all the fuss about losing the Class 172 trains in a couple of weeks, the worst happens in another way!
If it’s the electrification, Network Rail must get it better!

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
Why Anonymous? That’s how you feel at times.

Shame really as they seem to be using more electric traction on long distance freight again e.g.
4L18Trafford Park Euro Tml to Felixstowe North
75mph GB Railfreight Electric-hauled freight train
OTOH it is not due there until ~19:30, so time to change the fuse?
