    OK, The list is up as at 13:45 today (18/03). I will try to update at least daily. Can representatives of each railway please check you data is correct (it's been gathered from here after all !)
    Thanks for your patience - and for the information which I hope will help us all.

    Great work, but looking at my Twitter and Facebook feeds there are many more that have succumbed.
