I took my grandson round to Kings Norton station this morning to catch the 9:57 to Four Oaks as he needed to be at a job interview near Duddeston at 11:00. When we arrived at 9.50 the 9:27 to Four Oaks was at the platform with the driver, guard and station booking clerk having a conflab.
The electronic display kept mentioning 'animals on the line'.
As my grandson was a bit nervous I took him to Duddeston in my car. Just after 11.00 I popped into Duddeston station and trains were back on the move.
Anyone know what the problem was? To my knowledge there aren't many sheep, cattle, horses or wildebeest close to the Crosscity line between Kings Norton and New St.
The 9:27 (2U22) seemed to be the train most affected and this looks as though it left Kings Norton at 10.01 (http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/G24718/2016/03/17/advanced) .
