10:30 Westbury to Swindon due 11:16
This train will be starting late from Westbury and is expected to be 15 minutes late.
This is due to a fault on this train.

I am - delighted - to see it was just a delay.  Phew! ... trains running a bit late (return trip 5 late, next trip on time) are much more acceptable than cancellations on lines like the TransWilts, where the inter-train gap is significant!

Overall reliability is significantly improved these days.   And it was really great to see the whole thing working well during the engineering works, with so many services around,
