Delays on Great Eastern Main Line
Dear Network Rail Limited,
I would like details of all rail delays on the Great Eastern Main Line (between Liverpool Street and Norwich) which held up trains by more than 30 minutes between October 16 2016 and October 15 2017 (The first year of the new Greater Anglia franchise period)
I would like to know the cause of the delay (infrastructure problem, fatality, or train breakdown) and in the event of a train breakdown the operator of the train involved (GA, Freightliner, GBrF, DBS or other).
Yours faithfully,
Paul Geater, for the East Anglian Daily Times.

Dear FOI,
I am looking for information on trains which arrive at their destination 30 minutes or more late because of a single incident - whether that is because the train is stopped mid-journey or because its departure from its original station is delayed.
If a train arrives at its destination more than 30 minutes late because of a long-distance speed limit or because it is stuck behind a slow-moving freight train I would see that as single incident
However in the rare event that a number of unrelated incidents contributed to a delay, I would not be seeking information about that.
I hope this clarifies my request.
Yours sincerely,
Paul Geater
