Services between Slough and Windsor -- one carriage?

« on: June 18, 2012, 10:36:29 AM »

Possibly connected with the derailment at Reading earlier this morning -- Journeycheck is currently saying that the "1020 Windsor to Slough [and subsequent journeys] will be formed of one coach instead of two. This is due to a train fault."
Does this mean one coach locked out of use , or perhaps they've borrowed a Chiltern bubblecar?

Door fault, so presumably the carriage with the fault had to be locked, leaving just one carriage available for use. 165126 can't be swapped for another train because of the derailment at Reading.
