Anyone got a spare wheel and jack?

It was...

However the 16:57 from Plymouth to Paddington HST developed a speedometer fault in the London end cab shortly after leaving Plymouth.  It returned to the station and was swapped with the 14:03 which was waiting to leave for the final leg of its journey to Penzance. 

No doubt the speedo will be fixed at Long Rock tonight.

Hope a failed speedo, is not to revealing! though being more serious, could this be a reason for a out of service for ever for this set, with a 5 car IET replacement for the remaing week.

Reminds me of the time a few years ago when I was travelling between Carlisle and Leeds over the Settle-Carlisle. The speedo failed in the drivers cab of our Class 158 while we were mid-way. No chance of a rescue DMU or loco. Problem was 'solved' by having the guard ride in the back cab, calling out the speed over the cab to cab phone, with driver keeping below 40mph. We were finally caped at Skipton.

Saw the 09:03 leave Paddington (late) and it was an IET.

Whilst stationary in Plymouth yesterday on a Truro-bound IET, an empty HST set passed us by on the middle track in the direction of Laira, it wasn’t the green set

1A71 IS an HST today (Thursday 16/05). Just seen it at Newton 19 minutes late.

RTT show it cancelled at Reading due to signal failure, arr 35 late


Journey Check has 1A81 7.41 exPNZ as 5 coaches vice 8, so presumably IET.

Yes it was terminated at Reading with the 09:03 to Plymouth starting back from there.

There's an ECS 5C84 at 1050 from Bristol to Paddington, which looks like a replacement HST and form 1C84 1403 to Penzance.

Saw it sat at Platform 7 as I passed through, circa 09:30 ... it headed west about quarter of an hour later, presumably held for passengers connecting from Paddington.  Real Time Trains suggests to me that it then missed its path and suffered further delays, or could it be that it was taking it leisurely in this swan song week?
