@AvantiWestCoast Thanks Miles, I couldn't wait any longer so got the 747. Do you know why the hasn't been any announcements? There was just a load of us waiting at the platform not knowing what's going on

@benxg You can indeed Ben. We are waiting for a team member to run this train safely. We're hoping you shouldn't be waiting much longer and you'll be on the move! Really sorry for the extended wait - Miles

@AvantiWestCoast how about some comms for the delayed 721 from bhm?

@AvantiWestCoast Is it worth getting the 747 instead, will advance tickets be valid?

@CrossCountryUK Thanks Peter, made it

@benxg Best going to Platform 10 for the 17:30 now. ^Peter

DISRUPTION: Due to a broken down train between Coleshill Parkway and Nuneaton the line towards Leicester is blocked. Services operating between Birmingham and Leicester/Cambridge/Stansted may be delayed or cancelled. Updates:- journeycheck.com/crosscountry/.

@CrossCountryUK Thanks... Which platform is that?

@benxg The very late 16:30 from Birmingham will be the first service. Please board trains to Derby and change there. ^Peter

@CrossCountryUK Is the 1749 going to run, or a bus replacement?

@benxg Wait patiently, essentially. We're trying to recruit more coaches, and there are staff on site at Water Orton to try and fix things. ^Peter

@CrossCountryUK So... How to get from Bham to notts this eve?

@benxg They won't be our coaches then. We had four and they went off to Leicester already. ^Peter

@CrossCountryUK @kapfranos There are coaches at new st and crowds of people waiting but no info, bus drivers don't know where they're going. Is there a bus from Bham to notts?

@kapfranos We're requesting them. The buses from Leicester were recruited due to the previous issue and have all ran full. We don't have an update on more appearing at New Street currently. ^Peter

@MrHairyHaggis Even more impressive, how did he get from the half finish to the marathon start?!

@virginmedia no broadband or TV in b17. VM app says to book a technician visit, but same thing happened recently and it was a VM network problem. Are there wider issues this time too?

@PhilipsCare Hi, am filling out repair and replace form, it's rejecting the serial number, but there is no other number on the device, can you help? thanks

@virginmedia Fixed already! Thanks

@benxg Thanks for getting back to us, many apologies for this. Our team will be looking to resolve the matter as soon as they can. ^KW

@virginmedia broadband out in B17 - have an engineer appt but wonder if it's a larger issue?

@virginmedia Thanks - yes the status has changed from it being just my problem to an area problem with an estimated fix time.

@benxg Sincere apologies for the service issues faced Ben, if there is an area fault then all single visit appointments would be cancelled I'm afraid, has there been an estimated fix time advised for this virg.in/servicechecker? ^KW

@ISE_Show where is the WiFi login? Thanks

Haven't been on the tube for a while, surprised to find 4g working on the bakerloo

@coventryhalf Thanks, that's great!

@benxg There are a few options but one of the easiest ways to access from the ring road is to be dropped at at the end of Gosford Street where it joins Far Gosford St, which is a few mins walk from the start. Hope that helps and see you there!

@coventryhalf hi, is there a good place to be dropped off tomorrow? Am getting a lift there!
