limit the use of your mobile phone to essential details like "the train's
been delayed - I'll see you at this time at this place instead of what we
agreed before".

Of course, the first thing anyone you ring to say you are late says is
"Where the heck are you?"

It is extraordinarily difficult not to instinctively reply "on the
train" ...

Anyway, I bet the most common first words of phone calls made from
payphones at Tebay service station are "I'm at Tebay service station".
It's a perfectly sensible thing to say.
