Delays between Newport/Ebbw Vale and Cardiff of 90mins due to animals (cows)

Very funny jokes on National Rails Twitter.

"The cows have been mooved! They apologise for becoming the laughing stock. They got lost on their way to the moovies *gets coat"

Jersey what you've started? They'll be churning out cheesy jokes for decades. Someone butter stop this beefore it gets mooved.

(We got stopped at a level crossing in the car once, only there were no tracks, just barriers and lights. Turned out to be for a giant stream of cows.)

Not a heifer-y day occurrence. I'll moooove along. 45 cows that's a pretty big obstacle, more than enough to derail even the heaviest of trains.
