Disruption Reading - Westbury

« on: July 05, 2026, 09:19:22 »

Problems with singnalling near Hungerford, disruption now extended to Monday evening

Quote

Due to a fault with the signalling system between Westbury and Reading fewer trains are able to run on some lines.
Impact:
Train services running to and from these stations may be delayed by up to 20 minutes. Disruption is expected until the end of the day on 06/07/26.
