Seems there must have been 2 trains in that terminated a couple of stations short around 11pm on Thursday then...
This http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/G01058/2017/05/25/advanced was my guess of train but as Ely has vending machines shown on http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/stations-and-destinations/stations-made-easy/ely-station-plan it can't be the train in question.
Yes it was Ely my train pulled in from Norwich and we sat there for 10 mins before the conductor nice lady said they would put me on the next train cross country to Cambridge and to see the guy on platform two who would organise cab from Cambridge, which I did quite happily . He was also a nice guy it was the young guy on platform one that had me mad no customer service skills at all.
Whilst waiting for the train was told they changed their mind and would organise a cab from Ely if I went to platform 1,the guy on platform 1 was sitting in an office with an older guy , who said a cab which he had booked would be 20-25 mins after booking it.Low and behold 80 mins later no more info and I was still there .
It went downhill after that if only they had allowed me to carry on to Cambridge I could have gone to marks and spencer there for a packet of buiscuits. I looked in the machine at Ely (platform 1) and it already had a stuck bottle of water in it
