Incident got pretty full coverage and pictures in "The Eastern Daily Press" and some mention in the nationals.

Ps I think it was possible to start on batteries as a humble back(wards facing) driver I seem to remember a frustrated captain trying this after draining two trolley accs..........still didn't work..........u/s priming pump!
