22:31 Swindon to Westbury due 23:12

22:31 Swindon to Westbury due 23:12 is being delayed at Swindon.
This is due to the train departing late to maintain customer connections.

Left Swindon 14 minutes late - holding this train for connections is usually the right move

07:45 Westbury to Swindon due 08:28
07:45 Westbury to Swindon due 08:28 is being delayed at Chippenham.
This is due to congestion.

The main line from Bristol to London via Bath is closed this weekend between Bath and Chippenham, and a London express that was due to start from Chippenham was delayed there and started 22 minutes late (no reason given that I could see), holding up the train from Westbury.

No comfort for those who can only use accessible toilets but at least there is a second smaller toilet for those who can access those.
