  1. Tangmere’s cylinder broke so they had to remove a rod, then they had to take us back to Carlisle because the diesel’s wheels were damaged in the tunnel and then we had to switch to an Avanti train at no extra cost, the train goes to all the normal stops but Nuneaton, who knows what they will do.
