Absolutely stupid!
what a way to run a railway ! My Grandfather, an ex BR Steam driver, just wouldn’t believe it.
Oh dear, yet another “precautionary” closure of a railway service. If trains were to be always cancelled because of “expected rain”, then no trains would run at all in Britain because rain is pretty much always expected!
As for passengers being advised “to check before they travel” there’s little point if no trains at all are going to run.
