@SW_Help Ok thanks for letting me know

@SadPadExeter Hi, no sorry we are unable to hold trains due to the current disruption. Any tickets will be valid on the next service if they have advanced ones. ^DM

@SW_Help Can you please help? A friend is travelling from FLE to EXC via BSK but 10.50 FLE to BSK was cancelled. Next train is 11.50 from FLE but arrival in BSK of 12.02 means tight change to get 12.08 to EXC. Is it possible to hold the 12.08 train at BSK to avoid another delay?

@ian0martin Thank you Ian -and to you!

@SadPadExeter Happy Christmas Heather and Co! 🎄
