“ despite our best efforts, ice will form in freezing temperatures and trains become ‘stuck’ and ‘fail’. ”
Southeastern’s press release / news post about the reduced service they’ve been running during snowfall, complete with odd use of quotes.
Shamefully, I hadn’t though about the fact that “‘third’ rail” was more vulnerable to snow and ice until I saw a BBC News article on how to snow-proof the UK. That’s what I get for eschewing South London.
