Arsenal supporters have had their journeys to watch the team play Burnley at Turf Moor on Sunday thrown into chaos after a Grand Central train collided with a herd of cows. The 9.38am service from Kings Cross to Sunderland reportedly killed eight cows crossing the track between London and Peterborough, blocking lines and disrupting services running north from the capital. Arsenal fan and writer Tim Stillman tweeted that his train had been sent back to London. Grand Central said in a statement: “Due to animals on the railway between Peterborough and London Kings Cross all lines are blocked. Train services to and from these stations may be subject to disruption on all routes.
