🚂 Today my train journey was delayed

In this memory:
Eamon Droko
I was making the trip to Bristol today and my connecting train was cancelled due to a fault on the train.
Of course I wondered, about what that fault was.
Then I saw how it impacted the wider system.
And all I could think of was Eamon's and his 99 second talk on the quality of trains.
Did I have a quality train experience today? No.
Was the train faulty? Yes.
Do I always plan to arrive early when I take the train? Yes.
Do I accept it? Yes, because there's no alternative.
I have no real story here apart from the fact that every time I take a train and see a problem, then I think of Eamon. 🚂
I've been working in the software testing and quality engineering space since the year 2000 whilst also combining it with my love for education and community building.
