Title: Trespasser near Keynsham 19/9/13 Post by: John R on September 19, 2013, 21:35:19 Major delays this evening due to a trespass incident between Keynsham and Oldfield Park. All trains in the area stopped for over an hour. Reports were that the man was not your normal run of the mill trespasser but needed overpowering by the police which took some time.
Incident started around 1810 and the line was reopened at around 1920. 1630 Paddington to Taunton was around 85 late south of Temple Meads, just one example of the chaos caused.
