Nice one! At least it ran. I suspect in the reign of Queen Alison they wouldn't have bothered.

1C81 10:06 PAD» (Paddington (London) - next trains) to PNZ failed at Liskeard and was cancelled. Power car fire??
1A98 16:00 PNZ to PAD started PAR with 142028 which ran to TAUNTON for HST (High Speed Train) forward.

And apparently is expected in Padd only 12 minutes late, with the 142 getting to Taunton only about 10 mins down after an on time departure from Par.

Indeed, better that a train ran rather than no train at all.
