Was a refurbished alternator as well that went up in smoke.
It can't have been particularly well refurbished! Maybe this time it will be. |

I was replying to the previos post.... South West Trains are conveying passengers between Westbury and Exeter St Davids via Yeovil Bus Station in both directions until further notice.
Eh? So maybe a bus? |

Eh? I guess it was just an extremely obtuse way of saying - you can use the Weymouth service, change at Yeovil Pen Mill for the bus service to Yeovil Junction and pick up the SWT▸ service to Exeter St Davids  |

This incident is being discussed on two threads as somebody has posted on the "Paddington outage" (also querying the language of outage) and pointed out this thread is for Infrastructure posts.

Fully aware, Gentlemen ... also aware of the mess I would make if I start but cannot finish the job and I'm juggling lots of balls today. |

What a fun way to spend your Friday, I do hope you mean that literally!! Although disappointingly I suspect you're just busy with a lot of things! |

Fully aware, Gentlemen ... also aware of the mess I would make if I start but cannot finish the job and I'm juggling lots of balls today. I remain fully aware - and aware of repeated notifications too. Somehow the two thread, same topic stuff feels trivial tonight - see http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=17162.msg197342#msg197342 . I'll sort it in the morning. In the meantime, please feel free to carry on posting - you can help me by doing so in the other thread (at http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=17158.msg197344#msg197344 ) if it's on the specific subject of the derailment at Paddington and its aftermath. Thanks. |

The incident referred to here is the derailment of an empty passenger train at Paddington on 16 June 2016: the relevant posts following this one have now been moved and merged into a definitive discussion, at http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=17158.0 Please bear with us, on the admin / moderator team, in dealing with such issues: we all do this in whatever 'spare time' we have available. CfN.  |

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.
"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner." Discuss.

I saw this at about 8am this morning and I guess we are going to have to get used to this:
@nationalrailenq: Delays of up to 15 minutes between Reading and #DidcotParkway due to overhead wire damage between the stations
But was surprised by this given there are no electric trains and it isn't windy.
