Ouch! When that happens it is very irritating, and you end up waiting at least 30 mins for something else if not an hour. Was the service to Crewe running late or Chester train departed early? If the latter then that sounds a really odd thing to do they should've just waited.
Had similar experience at Leicester few months ago. Coming in from Crewe, change at Nuneaton, Leicester and another train to Loughborough. The XC to Leic was running 5-10 mins late. Anyway, it managed to get into Leicester literally a minute before departure of the Lboro EMT train on platform 1. Usually the Cambridge/Stansted XC's get platform 2, so I could've just crossed over door-to-door with the EMT but it ended up arriving into platform 4. No chance! So all conecting pax missed the EMT service, but I guess they have to depart in their given time slots, just irritating they moved the XC to the other side of the bridge.
