Major Disruption on all services out of Paddington? (8 August 2013)

« on: August 08, 2013, 13:43:41 »

First Great Western site is showing "Major disruption" on all services out of Paddington currently. When I click on journey check there is a broken down train near Hanwell on the relief line..Major disruption is shown as a No Entry sign which suggests no trains but I don't think that is true..

Looking at Reading departures board there are some delays..

This is ongoing.. Journey check is now reporting 60 minute delays so looks like it'll be a good rush hour this evening... Thankfully I'm not in London today.. Good luck to those that are

On the 19:34 to Gatwick, the on-board displays were showing nothing but apologies for delays due to signalling problems near Hanwell. I did wonder why.
