Alterations to services between London Paddington and Reading Due to signalling problems between London Paddington and Reading trains have to run at reduced speed on the Reading bound fast line.
Impact:
Train services running to and from these stations may be delayed by up to 20 mins or revised. An estimate for the resumption of normal services will be provided as soon as the problem has been fully assessed.
Ho hum.

Actually two problems. Both between London and Slough on the Down Main. A misbehaving signal at Southall and a track circuit sulking at Langley.

Just had a quick glance at FGW▸ 's Twitter feed - looks like there's a signalling problem tonight at Ladbroke Grove, plus the 1858 stopper to RDG‡ from PAD» was terminated at EAL▸ due to a cracked windscreen and the 1922 PAD-HFD» has suffered a 'major fuel leak' before departure.

It's not a signalling problem but everything is running slow out of Paddington this evening. Bust doors on a service at southall. Nothing on journeycheck but trust me it's there. 20min delay so far.
I also had a 50min delay (on 20min service) this morning as the 7.08 Maidenhead to Paddington broke down 10ft from its destination.
Journecheck and others aren't picking these incidents up these days. Has their tolerance been adjusted??

And in doing so blocked both platforms 8 and 9 for a while. At the same time platform 1 was occupied for an hour longer than normal due to problems with the empty sleeper stock. Gave the signallers a few headaches I should imagine. |

And again tonight, the lines out of Paddington are painfully slow but journeycheck says everything is cushty. Does anyone have any insight on why the rose coloured glasses are being applied to (what I thought was) an independent service?

Just wondering if slow running is down to the increased amount of freight due to the Banbury - Lamington route being closed, the WTT▸ may have been adjusted to account for this increase in freight hence the Real Time Trains and FGW▸ own train running apps will not show a problem |

A track circuit failure near Twyford affecting London bound trains and a signal failure in the Hanwell area (a repeat of the same fault from a few days ago) affecting trains leaving London are the two problems being attributed to delays this evening.

The points between platform 4 and 5 at Maidenhead have failed. London bound relief line closed between Twyford and Slough.
No London bound trains will call at stations Twyford to Slough so they can provide as much capacity as possible although I've heard that the fault with the points has just been rectified.

You can follow this incident using the hashtag #WestDrayton

15 minutes lost between Reading and Maidenhead this morning on Paddington bound service.
This was due to congestion due to a late running freight train, apparently.
It's great that the entire morning peak commute is second class to freight.
