Having watched a poor game of football I made my way to Preston Railway Station in good time to catch the train. Train was on time and I was hopeful of a reasonable journey home. I embarked and waited for the train to depart. I waited….. waited ……waited and waited!!!! For 55 minutes!!! No driver! Apparently cows were on the line near Milton Keynes which meant our driver was delayed to drive us from Preston!!!!When he eventually was on our train we had to wait another 15 minutes before he was able to drive! Started to get anxious because my connection from Birmingham left at 9.12 and was the last train I could catch! I was relieved that I eventually got to my connection with 4 minutes to spare! I am now trying to plough through a compensation claim!
Have a better train tale for next blog!
