BBC Norfolk reports:
A fault with the air compressor took out the electrics on the whole train? How come?Passengers were stuck on a broken down train for about three hours after a bird strike damaged the vehicle. Greater Anglia said the 15:00 BST service [on 23 Sept] from London Liverpool Street to Norwich was halted near Diss, after the strike caused "a fault that could not be rectified".
The damage took out the electrics, leaving people on "a dead train" with no water or access to toilets.
Greater Anglia updated information on its website, saying: "A bird strike has caused a fault with the air compressor on the train."
