Manchester Airport Train Station closed

[Silvercloud]

Suspicious package discovered & a bloke arrested at the scene. No trains or teams entering or leaving the station for the foreseeable.

The place is swarming with armed police. The whole terminal has been evacuated pretty sharpish apparently.

Haha maybe a TC employee doing a Reggie Perrin?

Probably worked for Thomas Cook and has lost the plot.

The son of a lad I work with is stuck there. He’s saying it’s chaos. Police and fire engines flying up and down the roads. Police helicopter buzzing about. Now not allowing anybody into the airport terminal

Maybe a bit more to this than we’re being told at the moment

Back open again now. Gonna take some time to clear the back log of passengers I imagine.

These new security checks are going too far in my opinion.

OT:
Its so annoying on my phone when it changes (not even autocorrect for bad spelling) tram(s) to team(s).

Wasn't too bad. We flew to Berlin today. Was a bit hectic for traffic around the airport, and we had to walk the last half hour to get there, but flight only delayed by about 20 mins
