EMT incident

Post by Deltic18 »

Morning all
Yesterday afternoon, 1F45 14.55 St Pancras Intl - Sheffield, 222005, was involved in an incident at Market Harborough. The result was, a gear box was found on the track and the wheels on one of the coaches had 'disintegrated'. Fortunately, there were no injuries but delays and diversions were in effect. The EMT website stated that the diversions/delays were down to a 'broken down train at Market Harborough'. Understatement really!
