Cancellations to services between Fareham and Southampton Central Due to signalling problems between Fareham and Southampton Central trains have to run at reduced speed on the line.
Impact:
Train services running through these stations may be cancelled, delayed or diverted between Romsey and Fareham. Southampton Central will not be served. Disruption is expected until 08:00 29/12.
Customer Advice:
South West Trains will accept valid First Great Western tickets between Eastleigh and Southampton Central until further notice.

Looks line everything diverted via Eastleigh, with SWT (South West Trains)'s "Romsey 6" service withdrawn (between Eastleigh and Salisbury at least) and the Cardiff Portsmouth picking up the stops. A typical expansion:

Quote
07:30 Cardiff Central to Portsmouth Harbour due 10:52
This train will be delayed between Romsey and Fareham and is expected to be 4 minutes late.
This train will be diverted between Romsey and Fareham.
This train will call additionally at Dean, Mottisfont & Dunbridge, Chandlers Ford and Eastleigh.
This train will no longer call at Southampton Central.
This is due to signalling problems.

Nice to see FGW (First Great Western) trains calling at FGW stations.    Stations served by SWT (South West Trains) but managed by FGW due to the train service patterns changing and the SWT Romsey shuttle taking over.
