Not UK, but Telehouse NY 25 Broadway had a fairly long outage a few days
after the initial 9/11 attack. ISTR they were initially OK, but then had
a generator problems due to ingress of dust into radiators. It's a long
while ago, lots of neural bit rot since then, may not have been 25
Broadway at all, but Nanog archives (if they go back that far) will
probably tell you quite a bit of the story.

I’m hunting for an examples of long duration data centre outages in
the UK, from a day of downtime to total data centre loss (explosion or
some other industrial accident).
Is anyone aware of any tails they could share? Bigger and higher
impact the better.
Slightly more casually interested in BT exchanges as well.
I’m aware of:
·Several corporate incidents, including Three, Capita, and Vodafone
·The Telecity power issues from a few years back, though they were
less than a day
