Journeycheck advising journeys from/to Taunton returning to normal, but Melksham and other lines still suffering.

Lovely to be able to ‘see’ where the trains are west of Liskeard for the first time ever.

Which site?
Opentrains not yet.
Traksy has the track layout to Penzance but not the signals beyond Liskard.
Signalmaps is unsearchable.

Apologies, duplicated

07:43 Falmouth Docks to Truro due 08:11
07:43 Falmouth Docks to Truro due 08:11 is being delayed at Falmouth Docks.
This is due to engineering works not being finished on time.

Wonder if that is the same issue as the signalling 'issue'.
