Title: Relief, or slow? Post by: grahame on October 30, 2015, 11:49:42 Quote Alterations to services between Didcot Parkway and Reading Due to a fault with the signalling system between Didcot Parkway and Reading trains have to run at reduced speed on the Reading bound slow line. I thought they were the "relief lines". Now officially "slow"?? Clearly, they are quite slow at the moment ;) Title: Re: Relief, or slow?
