Title: Paddington Disruption 8 Feb 2024 Post by: Witham Bobby on February 08, 2024, 11:02:42 A relative who was sitting on the 1053 Paddington to Worcester at Paddington, ready to leave, has just messaged to say that passengers have been advised by public address that there has been a fatality on the line just outside the station and every train is cancelled from now until early evening
Horribly, sad news. My heart goes out to all involved Title: Re: Paddington Disruption 8 Feb 2024 Post by: Witham Bobby on February 08, 2024, 11:09:15 Quote Cancellations to services between London Paddington and Reading Due to the emergency services dealing with an incident between London Paddington and Reading the line is blocked. Train services running to and from these stations may be cancelled or delayed by up to 90 minutes. Disruption is expected until 11:45 08/02.

This appears to be confirmed by Open Train Times and from this post on X from a passenger on board that (looking backwards) clearly shows signal SN232 which is the junction signal on the UR for the curve round to Drayton Green:
