Apparently axle counters failed at both ends of the station resulting in delays and cancellations.
I don't know where the axle counters are located but P3 seemed to be more effected than P5, is this possible? This is based on the fact that trains went in and out of P5 quickly for example the 0705 Paddington to Long Marston which arrived and left in a couple of minutes while the 0650 Paddington - Great Malvern was stuck in P3 for over 50 minutes.

Cancellations to services between London Paddington and Maidenhead
Following failure of the electricity supply earlier today between London Paddington and Maidenhead all lines have now reopened.
Train services running to and from these stations are returning to normal but some services may still be cancelled, delayed by up to 45 minutes or revised. Disruption is expected until 10:00 22/06.
Customer Advice
Electric trains are now able to use all 4 lines following an earlier power failure. Now that train services are moving, residual delays can be expected as a result of congestion between Reading and London Paddington.
We do not have ticket acceptance with South Western Railway due to the limited train services as a result of industrial action and Ascot races meaning that services are busier than normal.

I arrived at TWY▸ for the 08.24 to PAD» but instead caught the 08.09 running 17 late. There’s been no delays on the journey and the train is now approaching PAD having gained back about 6 minutes. However every IET▸ I’ve seen on the mains has been running on diesel power.

Power shortages/Crew Shortages/shortage of available (new) trains due to more than usual needing repair.
There is no shortage of excuses.

Sadly, no-one has yet found a way to harness excuses to drive trains or repair them ... they could make a fortune. |

Due to damage to the overhead electric wires between Didcot Parkway and Swindon trains have to run at reduced speed on some lines.
Impact:
Train services running through these stations may be delayed by up to 10 minutes. Disruption is expected until 11:30 25/06.

Would it be wrong of me to suggest that temperatures were exceptional today and that in previous years you would have expected far more significant disruption?
Good for commuters that today’s heat is giving way to more seasonally typical weather tomorrow in time for the return to work on Monday.

Not sure, to be honest. Damage to overhead lines wasn't an available cause of disruption in previous years. |

I take your point, although of course it has been since the late 90s for the 11 miles out to Airport Junction.
