Not sure where to post this as the infrastructure is Network Rail, but National Rail services are running OK (in fact Northern ran some extras yesterday to compensate), just T&W metro is affected...
Anyway, Metro services between Pelaw and St Peters have been cancelled for 2 days now due to some sort of electrical fault, and now it appears they are also having trouble sourcing replacement buses this evening.
I know the technology is a bit alien to NR (1.5kV DC), but the kit is pretty new (only 15 years old). Does anyone know what the nature of the fault is, and when it is likely to be fixed?
