Manchester Rail Chaos Resolved | Glasgow News

from Glasgow News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A major power outage at Manchester’s railway control center plunged trains across the Midlands and northwest England into chaos, sparking widespread cancellations and delays. Engineers worked through the night to restore signaling systems and reposition stranded trains, with most services back online by Friday morning—but disruptions linger until midday. Passengers are still feeling the pinch after two days of travel woes, while the electricity company blamed a high-voltage cable incident. Travelers should still check operator websites for updates, and ticket holders in Greater Manchester can now use buses and trams if their train is affected.
