Rail LIES!!!!The phrase 'signalling problems' is a generic catch all term for a multitude of problems that they don't feel we are worthy enough to know about.

They should just change it to "Trainy problems" or just "stuff"."Ladies and Gentlemen, due to stuff the 8:15 to Chipping Sodsbury has been delayed by 5 minutes"

Or we should get more strict with the rail operators like in JapanThen people might want to use the rail services, the packed carriage gropings might not go down too well though

nings joe! I just wish they would put a bit more effort into the excuses...as we all know "signal failure" is a lie, why not go all out and say "a large red dragon has decided to make the track just outside Harrow and Wealdstone it's nesting ground, and Network Rail Knights have been dispatched to deal with the issue"
