What, pray tell, does "operating difficulties" mean ?? A train de-railment. Power failure. Staff shortage. Half-eaten ham sandwich stuck in the points ???
How about telling us about WHAT is causing the delay ??
The general public DO have brains to understand things - unlike the suits behind some desk/console in some Control Centre somewhere! Gimme strength !!!
I am relieved to discover that I'm not the only guy in Wirral causing disriuption!! :-)
