Bottled water restarts train

Richard Hall3 Oct 2011

Last week, a passenger train came to a creaking halt in the East of England because a safety feature cut off power after a leak had led to a loss of coolant.

The quick-​thinking staff put a message out over the announcement system asking if anyone had bottles of water for a top-​up. Fortunately, enough people had bottled water with them for their journey and the train was able to complete its journey.

Trains need hydrating too, it seems.
