One thing baffled me as I watched yesterday's disruption unfold from the comfort of my PC chair...
At no time were Edinburgh services mentioned, despite being as badly affected as the rest.
The day finished with a procession of EC trains 60-90min-plus late into Edinburgh/Glasgow/Aberdeen.
But the web sites (NRES, EC) gave no advice on alternatives and Virgin were never mentioned on the ticket acceptances.
Was this because VT did not agree to accept EC passengers, or was it just an omission?
Surely with that sort of disruption from mid-afternoon, anybody heading to Scotland would just want to head up Euston Road to catch a VT service?
