Message Received :13/06/2012 16:53 Can anyone shed any light on these "disruptive passengers" at Ledbury and Gloucester? Title: Re: Disruption for many reasons (Wed June 13) Post by: fatcontroller on June 13, 2012, 23:58:49 The disruptive passengers at Gloucester and Ledbury are one and the same.
The Conductor for 1450 Malvern - Weymouth was assaulted at Malvern Link whilst working into Malvern. Subsequent delay/cancellation for both services. Also the Signalling problems was points failure at Abbotswood Jn.
