    Who'd 've thunk it?

    A Network Rail spokesman said: "During the process of testing the complex signalling, we identified an issue in this safety-critical system which we are working to resolve.

    "We are working hard to minimise delays to passengers, but safely is our number one priority."

      Need to know whether to get a season ticket for Sept or extend pass for clientco car park.

      Thanks.

          It runs until Thursday so I'm really hopeful I can be back on the train next month.
