I am having a week of it on my 7 day 1st class All line Rover, firstly got help up on sleeper on Monday 30.01.17 due to signalling problems, ended up 90 mins late into Euston. Wednesday, got delayed by suicides on VTEC, was on 07.31 Darlington-Kings Cross, arrived 100 mins late, and this morning Thursday 02.02.17 1M16 20.44 Inverness-Euston caped Edinburgh 5 hours late at 06.00, due to 67010 having Crank Case Pressure problem, having to have 67003 come up from Mossend to rescue us from between Kingussie and Dalwhinnie, hauled dead 67010 and train to Edinburgh, think I may be breaking delay records this week <D

Give it another delay claim or two and you'll be able to do another on the delay repay :lol:

Hopefully things smooth out for your last couple of days.

...It gave you an extra 67 for haulage on the sleeper so I don't know what you're complaining about ;)

But yes, delay repay.

I'm not complaining too much, as did get extra 67 haulage <D and an extra bit of HST thrash and a cooked breakfast, and the delay repay will pay for some more days out, and last nites Thursday 02.02.17 1M16 20.44 Inverness-Euston arrived 5 minutes early behind 90044, had good nites sleep.
