only 20deg in Brighton. this temperature thing is nonsence, i understand the principle but it doesnt wash, the temperatures absolute and variation are not that uncommon and we didnt see similar problems elsewhere. seems more likly a poor excuse for missed maintenance or a dodgy connector on...
saw this, and with the fact its mid April and the sun and heat is clearly going to be lower than end of June/July, i conclude this is a load of bollocks.
it beggers belief that when the trains are fubar they cant move crew around by cab. i perfectly understand that a driver turning up for shift at Brighton cant get a train to location x if the trains arent running. i do not understand why they cant put him in a cab to location x at cost of <£100.
