Transport: landslip between Derby and Sheffield

[kerrypolka]

Hello all,

I've just got an email from East Midlands saying there's been a landslip between Derby and Sheffield (above Chesterfield), and that part of the track is now closed for at least six weeks. Here's more information on it.It won't affect trains between London and Derby, but trains from The North will be delayed, as they'll be on diversion

Oh sorry, I should have said (since most Bardcampers coming by rail I suspect are also getting the Derby-Belper train)! It won't affect them (or at least there's no reason for it to), because those trains run on a different track and anyway terminate south of the affected area.

Might affect me, although it seems to be listed as not a problem for CrossCountry trains.

Looks like trains are diverting, so actually just a shorter wait at Derby, hopefully.

Unexpected upside!
