Title: Passenger disturbance 04/07/18
Post by: Jason on July 04, 2018, 16:09:22
Due to passengers causing a disturbance on a train between Didcot Parkway and Reading some lines towards Reading are blocked.
Impact: Train services running to and from these stations may be delayed or revised. Disruption is expected until 16:45 04/07.

Passengers apparently jammed the doors open on the 15:02 from Didcot Parkway at Pangbourne.   Train eventually arrived at Reading 50 minutes late and was terminated.

You mean they were trying to get on and there wasn't room? Perhaps GWR / NR whomsoever need to employ 'pushers on' like they do in Japan.
