Oh dear !!!! JourneyCheck doesn't say which depot but I presume this to be SPM (St Philip's Marsh (Bristol depot)) so are we in for a day of disruption of west services today.  Huh  Roll Eyes

06:43 Bristol Temple Meads to Penzance due 11:27
06:43 Bristol Temple Meads to Penzance due 11:27 will be started from Plymouth.
It will no longer call at Bristol Temple Meads, Weston-super-Mare, Taunton, Tiverton Parkway, Exeter St Davids, Exeter St Thomas, Dawlish, Teignmouth, Newton Abbot, Totnes and Ivybridge.
This is due to a derailment within the depot.

Seems likely, many of the Weymouth services are down to two cars, vice 4 or 5. Luckily the weather forecast is not too good so may put off some from travelling

Three coaches less over plan into Weymouth and back during the Saturday peak

06:49 Worcester Shrub Hill to Weymouth due 11:09
Facilities on the 06:49 Worcester Shrub Hill to Weymouth due 11:09.
This is due to a fault on this train.
Will be formed of 2 coaches instead of 5 from Bristol Temple Meads.

16:08 Weymouth to Great Malvern due 20:35
Facilities on the 16:08 Weymouth to Great Malvern due 20:35.

I thinks that leaves the was-Wizard 11:25 into Weymouth and 17:30 at scheduled length - though I don't know what the schedule is / was - 3, 5, or 6 carriages?
