Unless of course we actually are trying get somewhere
and our journey is disrupted. I have some sympathy
with the protest about new opencast mines wrecking
the countryside, but thie kind of thing tends to
have the wrong effect on me.

In this particular case the protest should only be affecting the
power station, unless someone has taken the political decision to
stop other trains and blame the protestors.

According to my old Quail there should be enough room to get any
following coal trains off the lines used by passenger trains.
