Title: Problems from Paddington this evening Post by: gpn01 on June 23, 2011, 17:26:55 On FGW website:
Line problem between London Paddington and Slough. Train services have been disrupted due to a person hit by a train between London Paddington and Slough.Short notice alterations, cancellations and delays of up to 60 minutes may still occur. Train services have resumed and are now able to call at Southall. South West Trains have agreed to pass First Great Western customers between London Waterloo & Reading / Windsor via any reasonable route. London Underground will pass FGW customers between Paddington and Waterloo via any reasonable route.

Bit chaotic at Paddington with everything caught up in the (rail) traffic including services on the Greenford branch - took me about 10 minutes longer than usual to travel between PAD and AML, but that's nothing compared to the delays to other services! Met a familiar person to this board while I was waiting at Paddington too!

I've just looked at Live Departure Boards, the 17.33 has taken 56 minutes from PAD to Twyford with one stop at Maidenhead and is expected 31 minutes late at Reading.
