Comments
With what i've posted above, it does partly make confusing reading but i'll get to Newcastle somehow!.
My day job is a travel consultant booking rail tickets for government staff. Today at work i noticed severe delays on cross country services going from the south west, via brum, sheffield, donny , leeds ,wakefield, york , darlington durham etc with alot of delays around 2 hours. Id suggest to set off as early as possible but if you have advance purchase tickets you could be in trouble.
cheers
