As I recall fuzzy though was AC issues caused by dust and they eventually ran 
out of fuel for the generator as the port authority wouldn't allow tankers onto 
Manhattan. Might be wrong on that long time ago.

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
