17:04 Didcot Parkway to Moreton-In-Marsh due 18:10 will be cancelled.
This is due to more trains than usual needing repairs at the same time.

It performed well on the day giving those on board a nice ride, punctual arrivals at all points. I enjoyed it. A good test as the load was 13 plus a (dead) class 57.

Always the masters of a big load

Motorails between Kensington Olympia could be 16 8s (MkI coaches and Carflats - which were basically MkIs with the bodies demolished)

Merehead to Acton stone trains were always exciting, a mega string of those 4-wheel ex-iron ore tippler wagons

This is due to industrial action.

Anyone else used to journeys like Worcester Shrub Hill to Worcester Foregate Street on the strength of a 6d platform ticket?

Today's industrial actiion has seen the cancellation of: (according to GW▸ (Great Western) JourneyCheck)

1P02 1905 Great Malvern to Paddington
1W45 2251 Paddington to Worcester Parkway

Another Worcester service to bite the dust is

1G29 1933 Paddington to Worcester Shrub Hill (via Kemble)

08:15 Worcester Shrub Hill to London Paddington due 10:23 will be diverted between Worcester Shrub Hill and Reading.
It will no longer call at Worcestershire Parkway Hl, Pershore, Evesham, Honeybourne, Moreton-In-Marsh, Kingham, Charlbury, Hanborough and Oxford but will call additionally at Cheltenham Spa and Didcot Parkway.
It has been delayed at Worcester Shrub Hill and is now 13 minutes late.
This is due to this train being late from the depot.

And a couple from yesterday:

1W25 1251 London Paddington to Worcester Foregate Street - cancelled between Oxford and Worcester Foregate Street due to unknown cause (ZW)
1P34 1631 Worcester Foregate Street to London Paddington - cancelled between Worcester Foregate Street and Oxford due to late arrival of an inbound service (YI)

I think there may have been a signal or signalling failure near Didcot North Junction yesterday that threw a lot of the timetable out of the window

It appears there was a sad incident resulting in a fatality, further south, between Gloucester and Bristol Parkway.

I am sorry for those who knew and loved the deceased, and for all who have been involved in dealing with this

12  Journey by Journey / London to the Cotswolds / Re: 2024 Delays and Cancellations - North Cotswold Line on: March 13, 2024, 09:59:38
Several cancellations this morning because of the emergency services dealing with an incident.  I'm not sure whereabouts, but possibly at Shrub Hill
13  Journey by Journey / Plymouth and Cornwall / Re: Devon and Cornwall resignalling on: March 11, 2024, 10:03:23
I'm looking at it now, on the Cornwall workstation of Exeter PSB▸ (Power Signal Box), on Signalmaps

Just recording that yesterday, 5th March 2024, went by with no cancellations of trains through Evesham.  Just how it should always be.

Not a massive amount of late running, either
