Rachel Riley stuck on tube for four hours in commute that left commuters 'weeing in corner'
ok.co.ukRachel Riley and James Blunt were among the commuters who got trapped on the tube for hours following a power fault. Travellers on London’s new £19bn Elizabeth Line were left fuming after trains ground to a halt and were plunged into darkness near Paddington Station - with some even claiming people were forced to wee in the corner of carriages and on their seats.
It was also said some commuters smashed their way out of the cold trains and walked down the tracks after being trapped for more than three hours.
You’re Beautiful singer James, 49, wrote on X/Twitter: “Been stuck somewhere outside Paddington for close to 4 hours now. Out of peanuts and wine. “Can someone please contact @Dominos_UK.This is an emergency.” The pizza chain’s social media team made light of the situation by referencing the singer’s big hit, replying: “Got a car packed with pizzas for you James.
Our boot is full, it’s true.” James replied: “Great.There’s just over a thousand of us.” Eventually the commuters were evacuated from the trains, with Countdown star Rachel, 37, posting some selfies of her looking relieved as the ordeal came to an end.
