Hoooooo boy. Last night was horrific.
1. Got to Metrolink stop around 5:30pm and hear the dreaded voice of Julie over the tannoy.
'Due to a failed vehicle earlier in the day, the Eccles line is experiencing severe delays.' Ok, so, what does that mean then?
2. Decided to wait it out and then the message changed.
'Due to traffic on Eccles New Road, the Eccles line is experiencing severe delays.'
So, missing trams and now traffic. Oh hooray!
A tram eventually turned up around 6:10, which was too crammed to get on by time it got down to me. The next one came around 6:20, by which time the next train would be at 7:30pm.
Decided to make the most of it and met my husband for dinner in town. Upon which I'd discovered a bus had overturned in Eccles and some woman left her car and was killed by a lorry on the M62.
We finally got home at 9:00pm, 3.5 hours after I left work.
>:(
