From GWR▸ (Great Western Railway) Journey check https://www.journeycheck.com/greatwesternrailway/

This is a sample from there as of a few minutes ago; however, there has been a signalling issue from the first Pz train onwards.
Signalling problems are usually sorted fairly quickly, but this one seems to be ongoing.
Are there no local S&T▸ (Signalling and Telegraph) technicians locally, or do they have to travel from - where? -

10:00 Penzance to London Paddington due 15:21
10:00 Penzance to London Paddington due 15:21 has been delayed at Liskeard and is now 23 minutes late.
This is due to a fault with the signalling system.

Depots at Par and Plymouth.  But if its complicated it might need specialised Technical Support from Bristol.

It's to do with problems with half a dozen different axle counters between Lostwithiel, Bodmin Parkway and Largin. A bit of a messy job apparently  but seems to be on the way to being sorted...
