The line block itself seems to be east of Ealing Broadway, so why are GWR▸ stating Hayes & Harlington? Although that's nothing new as they've been doing it for the last year or so now. All day they didn't update the vague message, not even a hint of being open about what went wrong. And there was no apology from either them or Network Rail on their website or on Twitter. Just shows what a disgusting state of affairs we have on the GWML▸ The initial engineering possession was from Ladbroke Grove to Southall East junction All lines appear to be open this morning into Paddington.

A speed restriction over defective track in the Acton Main Line area is causing delays to services to and from London Paddington. As a result of this, trains may be delayed by up to 20 minutes.
This is expected to continue until approximately 11:00.

Even later than that now Cancellations to services between London Paddington and Ealing Broadway Due to urgent repairs to the track between London Paddington and Ealing Broadway trains have to run at reduced speed on some lines towards Reading. Train services running to and from these stations may be cancelled or delayed by up to 30 minutes. Disruption is expected until 12:00 15/05. Last Updated:15/05/2018 10:12

Tinpot railway.
No - its the "Tin Lizzie Line" - a figment of the imagination. All they have to do is paint the Yellow-brick Road on the sleepers and the illusion will be complete. Like the new TfL» tickets machines that can't actually issue tickets. And they call all of that an improvement!! BTW▸ heard a great moan this a.m. at Hayes & Harlington. There were a bevy of MTR / Crassrail staff at platform 4 checking tickets. One was moaning that yesterday he'd driven into Station Parade to turn round and been photographed for a trespass fine by the High Point Village security 'goons.'

Combined with the level crossing incident causing the cancellation of some of the longer distance services, it's going to be another nightmare at Paddington for the peak return.

The cynic in me can't help thinking they managed to do a bodge job on the tracks yesterday so they could claim that the overrunning engineering works had finally finished knowing full well that they'd then need to do some "urgent track repairs" today once morning peak was over....

Indeed Disruption to and from London Paddington expected until 20:00 A speed restriction over defective track in the Acton Main Line area is causing delays to services to and from London Paddington. As a result of this, trains may be delayed by up to 30 minutes or cancelled. Heathrow Connect is currently suspended. This is expected to continue until the end of the day. Additional information: Network Rail staff are currently investigating the problem, which means some lines are currently closed. Congestion is likely to build up as a result of this. Edit: Now until end of day

I don't know how they can have all these problems now. On Paddington 24/7 last night, they had great delight in flying around in their track inspection helicopter with their super-duper high-power camera so that all these infrastructure problems can be caught in advance.

To be fair they were at Paddington last night filming the great rush of people when a train was announced in all the mayhem.
