Points failure ... now fixed but residual delays

Quote
Following a points failure at Truro all lines have now reopened. Disruption is expected until 09:00 05/04.
Train services between Plymouth and Penzance are returning to normal but some services may still be delayed or revised.

Odd.
Journeycheck showing a St Erth to St Ives run cancelled - crew delayed by disruption.
Then delays with a signalling failure (Plymouth?); also disruption to some early services with a points failure.

The points problem was yesterday, so guess it's happened again.

Edited. Services not suspended as thread title, just disrupted!
