Rail company Greater Anglia was today branded an 'embarrassment' by train campaigners for cancelling services and imposing speed restrictions - after less than an inch of snow had fallen.
It cancelled 24 trains and passengers endured 30-minute delays as speeds were cut to 60mph on some services between London and Cambridge, Southend, Colchester, Ipswich and Norwich.
The disruption came as it was revealed overnight temperatures could drop to as low as -8C in the countryside - and -3C in urban areas - while more snow is expected for eastern parts of England.
