221112 & 221114, VT 18.02 London Euston-Wrexham General (Cancelled from Crewe), (1J32, 134L), Milton crossing
Again problems further south on the WCML closer to London
have affected services with all northbound trains running late with some cancellations. With the last vestiges of summer sun on the longest day illuminating the scene at Milton crossing between Roade and Blisworth 221112 and 221114 work the very late running 18.02 Euston to Wrexham Avanti service that should have passed this spot about two hours previously. Later on, the train was cancelled at Crewe arriving one hundred and thirty-four minutes late; I hope that the beleaguered passengers for Chester and Wrexham where offered onward transportation.
