Fire by tracks at London King's Cross

[Maljonic]

Just wondered if anyone has been affected by this. They say King's Cross station will be closed till tomorrow.

My journey home turned into a nightmare that meant I was over 3 hours late home and that was by abandoning the 'replacement bus service' and getting a different train to about 20 miles away and then a taxi.

When I turned up at Kings Cross they were directing everyone to Finsbury Park to catch a bus - when I got there there was 1 bus and that was full - it loitered for another 25 minutes with no other buses showing up and then drove off - I waited another 20 mins with no sign of any other replacement buses during all of which time people were turning up in a huge crowd with no queue - must have been 150 people by the time I left for a different route...

Seemed no real plan and in many stations they had no idea what the situation was - still I got to work from home today

My brother was affected in that he had to put the fire out

Serves him right for starting it then!

Only ruined by the fact that I live at Finsbury Park and had to deal with a million extra sweaty commuters all pushing and shoving on my tube train.
