The steam train itself didn't cause the incident. It was a wrong decision taken by the signaller that did. It may have been an ECS electric passenger train coming from Clapham Yard perhaps that had just as many restrictions that could have ultimately caused this.
It does show how much at capacity London Waterloo is, but the situation definitely could have been handled and communicated better.
It is a bit of a hit to their already poor reputation when they are notoriously known among commuters for running trains late all the time and that the delay to the journey was caused by one train running early.
