Once again Merseyrail grinds to a halt because it's raining. One again the perennial excuse of "flooding at Hooton" is trotted out as if this is something sent by teh almighty that must be borne without complaint.
As flooding is so common there, surely its high time something was done about it.Technology IS available to do this in the form of drains and flood alleviation schemes. Yes of course it will involve money, but so do these rail disruptions that seem to go on year in year out. If water covers the track then for heaven's sake elevate the bloody track or provide proper drainage.
I am sick of being decanted onto an overcrowded bus and having to stand because it rains and nobody can be arsed todo anything about it.
