Stranded passenger speaks to ITV News West Country

Nicole Withers was returning to London after a holiday in Devon.

She told ITV News West Country that she could not believe it took 6 hours to sort out the problem:

All this time the carriages were packed including families, children, pregnant women, the elderly.

There was no food and water. They had run out of supplies.

It was an absolute disgrace and we all deserve some serious compensation for being trapped like that.

– Nicole Withers.
