Thanks everyone for the replies. So, I might have been owed a meal voucher (which I didn't receive). And I should not expect any type of compensation for the delay? There doesn't seem to be anything in the COC that would signify I am technically owed anything.
The reason for the delay was not weather and was most certainly mechanical.

You are referring to IDB compensation. That is not the case in my situation.
