From the BBC» (British Broadcasting Corporation - home page):

Quote
Trains between Worle and Weston-super-Mare have resumed after a signalling problem was resolved.

Buses replaced the regular service on Thursday morning when trains were unable to enter Weston station to either drop off or pick up passengers.

People travelling from Bedminster, Worle, Bridgwater, Yatton, Nailsea and Backwell were affected with journey times extended by up to 30 minutes.

National Rail Enquiries said trains were now running as normal.

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.
