That journey back was one of my worst ever. One end of the carriage, pissed up Orient fans, the other end, a kid screaming for an hour (not blaming the kid or the parents, they were trying and the poor thing seemed very distressed). The aircon then gave up and so did half the lights and the power to the plug sockets, all with a re route adding an hour onto the journey. My Camden hells I gave into buying was the only decent thing. Never thought I was getting off that train!
Ah you where re routed as well
Via Birmingham was it?
