Thank you for the info :)
No worries. I was caught up in the aftermath trying to get home, but I have to say that it was all well managed and the station staff in particular were doing a fantastic job.

A colleague of mine was onboard at the time. The service was evacuated and he said there was a lot of smoke and the fire was extinguished very quickly. Needless to say there were no injuries, services were only delayed by around half an hour with the odd few cancellations, platform 1 was out of use for at least 5 hours also. The unit in question was indeed 222015
