This will be interesting if it continues into tomorrow with the Henley Regatta starting however I think there will be extra services on that branch anyway to allow for this.
Good to see the Regatta passing off pretty smoothly this year, no doubt helped by a cooling of the temperature at the weekend. From what I saw the train plan worked very well, the best for several years, with what appeared to be much more strengthened trains on the relief line services, especially on the Sunday which has been a big problem in the past! |

Cancellations to services between Chippenham and Swindon
Due to poor rail conditions between Chippenham and Swindon trains have to run at reduced speed on the Swindon bound line.
Impact:
Train services running through these stations may be cancelled, delayed by up to 30 mins or revised. Disruption is expected until the end of the day.
...............surely its not too hot today? Not good with people trying to get away before the strike starts.

Perhaps the rails were damaged by the stone train that had an unsolicited brake application this morning.
Edit: Nope. There's a kink at Chippenham.
Not sure which one though. Could be Ray, could be one of the other band members.

I've seen it reported as a 'domestic disturbance'.   |

Probably. But a domestic disturbance is one that happens in a domestic environment. I doubt those involved lived on Maidenhead station.
Or it could have been a ruckus between two charladies!
