745006 Coach L, H, C all 95% CET, only B and E toilets in use


I was on toilets all day, London side, in some ways I had a easy day, did have problems with some toilets, one or more toilets seem to be lock out of use for no reasons, may be other reasons? 

One blocked toilet seem not to be able to be unblocked, not just me try to do it, and a lot seem to be 95% CET.

Then the information screen, PIS screens was wrong for many trains, that caused confusion for customers, who wanted the 17:50 Norwich Thorpe to Sheffield 745006 and not a class 158 DMU, two coach?  Had a charter train on platform 1, this ended up on platform 2.

Also problems on Norwich Thorpe to Sheringham line.
