Well it wasn't 8233 since it don't exist, 8x33 and 8x34 where in service yesterday evening and this morning and they where in excellent health

Sounds like a pantograph failure or something related, the key possibilty is a wiper blade failure, thats the shinny metal piece which contacts with the wire it is replaced quite frequently. Could also have been vandals who like to throw bike chains up on the wire which snag

The simplest thing is to drag the train out of the way, to get into Fairview is quite tricky, Connolly is much easier
