Stopped short 5
Trains that reported movements and then did not reach the last station they were booked to.
Inferred, not reported: TRUST sends no failure event. A train diverted or turned short on purpose looks the same as one that broke down, and neither announces itself. Passenger services only, and only where the train had already started.
