First 9 car failure of today?
1A71 05:55 Plymouth to London Paddington due 09:01
05:55 Plymouth to London Paddington due 09:01 was terminated at Exeter St Davids.
It will no longer call at Taunton, Newbury, Reading and London Paddington.
This is due to a fault on this train.
Now running as 5A71 to Stoke Gifford

My query is that the guessing drivers were changed as the originating Plymouth driver was route signed to ? Taunton or Reading, but would they know the route to Stoke Gifford, or a change of driver at Exeter to someone signed for Stoke who just happened to be 'spare' at Exeter?
Would the train manager(s) and catering staff be turfed out at Exeter to become 'spare'?

Delays to services between Falmouth Docks and Truro
Following overcrowding because of an event between Falmouth Docks and Truro the line is now open.
Train services running to and from these stations may be delayed by up to 15 minutes. Disruption is expected until the end of the day.
Customer Advice
Sea Shanty Festival is taking place in Falmouth this weekend and train services have been very busy. We have increased the number of trains running this evening, however please allow extra time to make your journey. Local bus ticket acceptance is in place on First Kernow Route U1/U1A.

Roads just as busy as people leave Falmouth.
Stop/go crawling.
Don't see how GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway) can increase the 'number of trains running'. Thought only two units permissible.
Maybe they've increased two car units to three or four coaches, but would Penryn loop be able to cope with longer units?

But in reverse -
07:10 Penzance to London Paddington due 12:29
07:10 Penzance to London Paddington due 12:29 will be started from Plymouth.
It will no longer call at Penzance, St Erth, Hayle, Camborne, Redruth, Truro, St Austell, Par, Bodmin Parkway, Liskeard, St Germans and Saltash.
This is due to more trains than usual needing repairs at the same time.
And
12:18 Penzance to London Paddington due 17:29
12:18 Penzance to London Paddington due 17:29 will be terminated at Exeter St Davids.
It will no longer call at Tiverton Parkway, Taunton, Reading and London Paddington.
This is due to a shortage of train crew.
And
14:20 Penzance to London Paddington due 19:29
14:20 Penzance to London Paddington due 19:29 will be terminated at Plymouth.
It will no longer call at Totnes, Newton Abbot, Exeter St Davids, Tiverton Parkway, Taunton, Reading and London Paddington.
This is due to a shortage of train crew.

Thank you, appreciated.

Anyone with further knowledge of this "test" please?
With thanks

Two track. Now!  (With due deference to originating member!)

Um yes. I see the dilemma.
If it died when in service, passengers will be transferred to another service vehicle.
The dead vehicle will then be towed somewhere - with no one on board.
A rephrase to read "No passengers permitted on an out of service vehicle when under tow".

I believe that legally no passengers are permitted on any out of service vehicle.
 

Passengers forbidden on any towed vehicle

Had to Google the quote, as I didn't know it offhand (other search engines are available).
If the station is THAT obvious, it must be Taunton, prior to all the platforms, etc! 

NUJ members on strike in some areas, think today is the last day of it.

09:18 Penzance to London Paddington due 14:24
Facilities on the 09:18 Penzance to London Paddington due 14:24.
Service full and standing from Truro. (That early!)
Additional Facilities Information
No bike spaces available

With 2M05 sat at Chippenham awaiting its return to Westbury, 1A10 (Weston to London) took wrong line working from Thingley to Wootton Junction

Not in the right topic area, but on the subject of consistent information (ish).
A random example.
15:30 London Paddington to Taunton due 18:03
15:30 London Paddington to Taunton due 18:03 will be reinstated.
It will be terminated at Bristol Temple Meads.
It will no longer call at Nailsea & Backwell, Yatton, Worle, Weston-Super-Mare, Highbridge & Burnham, Bridgwater and Taunton.
This is due to a shortage of train crew.

So.
It's now reinstated but not to Taunton. Reinstated from London to Bristol only.
I want to travel to Taunton, but I need to read the additional information because it is NOT reinstated for me.

Misleading information.
