Title: Delays due to electrification 2-Jul-2014 Post by: Tim K on July 02, 2014, 08:11:31 Delays at Pangbourne this morning as according to the train manager when they were putting in the pillars for electrification they have accidentally severed 15 cables! Queue of trains outside Reading on the Main and Relief lines. Train manager has kindly declassified first class (first time I've heard seen that happen) as he doesn't know how long the delays are likely to be.

07:34 -> Cardiff 07:48 -> PAD 07:52 -> Oxford 07:57 -> PAD 08:02 -> Cheltenham were all showing cancelled on realtimetrains whilst I was trying to navigate a way through. SMS was telling me 07:37 -> PAD was also cancelled but I saw that running, though ~10 mins late through Didcot.
