Cancellations to services between Taunton and Exeter St Davids
Due to a person hit by a train at Tiverton Parkway all lines are blocked. Disruption is expected until 10:00 11/02.
Train services between Taunton and Exeter St Davids may be cancelled, delayed or revised.

Trains terminating at Taunton, and being held at Exeter with a few Paddington (from Exeter) cancelled.

5K16 0525 Exeter Tmd to Taunton stopped around Wellington crossover since 0546.
Coincidentally (?) M5 blocked at a junction near there.

Thoughts with all involved.
