You have to feel sorry for passengers on the 03:59 from Swansea this morning. It broke down at Royal Oak within sight of Paddington and has now been there 90 minutes. One of the Class 57s off the sleeper is now on its way to push it the last few yards into Paddington.
Ouch  |

Meanwhile, after providing the rescue loco, the sleeper stock reached Reading depot 138 minutes late... |

Good job they don't use the passenger coaches for a VegEx at the London end. Extra commuter trains in morning and evening peaks using loco and coaches anyone? |

So... not an infrastructure problem, then. |

Damaged by a road-rail vehicle ( RRV▸ ) apparently. |

Due to a fault with the signalling system between Ealing Broadway and Southall trains have to run at reduced speed on some lines towards Slough. Disruption is expected until 21:00 19/02.
Impact: Train services between London Paddington and Slough may be delayed by up to 15 minutes or running non stop.
Additional Information:
A track circuit failure at Hanwell means trains have to run at reduced speed. Because of the number of trains running in the evening Peak, congestion may occur. To allow Network Rail engineers to work on the problem, trains will be unable to use one of the lines towards Hayes & Harlington for approximately 30 minutes. Customers are advised to travel via Hayes & Harlington or London Paddington.
Services towards London Paddington and high speed services towards Reading, Oxford and the West are unaffected by this problem.

Due to urgent repairs to the railway at Oxford trains have to run at reduced speed on all lines.
Impact:
Train services running through this station will be cancelled or terminated at Didcot Parkway. Disruption is expected until 08:00 21/02.
Customer Advice:
A track defect at Oxford has meant all trains towards Didcot are running at 5mph over the defective track. Network Rail are currently repairing the railway and was expected to be completed at 05.30 however is now expected to not be completed until around 06.30.
Replacement coaches have been requested but the work has now been completed and the line is open again but there is still a speed restriction in place. Services starting at Oxford have been delayed this morning and trains will continue to be delayed in the area due to the speed restriction. Short notice alterations are likely to occur to the service.

Looks to be very disruptive, with huge queues building up on the relief lines (12 trains currently between Reading and Didcot, that's nearly every section occupied!) and no thinning out of services that I can see to help.
