I was on 1W29. The 5 car set was down to 1 engine providing power after Oxford. Control decided not to let the set work over Campden bank as it would not have got back up. It was moved to the down siding at Moreton to await its return path.

A case of "This is due to more engines than usual needing repairs at the same time."

This is due to train crew being delayed. Last Updated:20/08/2024 06:22 17:34 London Paddington to Hereford due 20:25 will be terminated at Worcester Shrub Hill. This is due to a shortage of train crew. Last Updated:20/08/2024 07:30 No mention of the return working, 1P06 22:00 Hereford to Worcester Shrub Hill.

I'm doing a bit of housekeeping here on the Coffee Shop forum - just simplifying some topic headings, in the interests of clarity and ease of future reference.

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

The topic heading here used to have "2024" in it, to distinguish it from other "delays and cancellations" topics for 2022 and 2023. Can we have the year back?
Indeed, the count of 'replies' is interesting:
2018 825 2019 311 2020 103 2021 12 2022 41 2023 427 2024 394 (to date)

This might be a good idea for other line-specific threads, too. Even though I have never travelled through Melksham by rail, I find myself comparing the number of posts each year as a crude measure of whether things are getting better or worse. The "Thames Valley Infrastructure Issues causing problems elsewhere" thread might also be usefully replaced by annual ones, in the (vain?) hope that one day it might give an indication that the problems have at last been addressed.

Hmm. Yes, I can do that - but it will take a little time. Please bear with me, while I do a bit of splitting and moving, this evening. CfN.

Worth recording that the stock for this travelled empty from Hereford (dep. 07:02) to London. Meanwhile, Friday August 23 08:56 Great Malvern to London Paddington due 11:24 will be started from Worcester Foregate Street. This is due to a late running train being in front of this one.

It arrived at Foregate St +35. 14:53 London Paddington to Worcester Foregate Street due 17:04 will be cancelled. This is due to a shortage of train crew. Last Updated:23/08/2024 09:12
17:26 Worcester Foregate Street to London Paddington due 19:52 will be cancelled. This is due to a shortage of train crew. Last Updated:23/08/2024 09:12
