Well, I have my next post drafted out ready just in case: F4T T+1.... Let's hope you won't need it. I have grim memories of the Stoke blockade (it lasted a couple of months, IIRC▸ ) during the WCML▸ upgrade. At 2230 on the Sunday evening Network Rail were saying reopening was happening. At 0600 on the Monday I turned up for a train, and reopening had slipped... by a week. See Crossrail for a more recent example of this phenomenon.

I will be finishing work late morning tomorrow with a plan to go straight to Parkway or Abbey Wood to give the four tracking to Temple Meads a go. Might just have a quick check beforehand that trains are running though, not that I'm doubting NR» off course. 😉

F4T T-0.5 And the $64,000 question: will the line reopen tomorrow morning as planned? Open but stifled? Cancellations to services between Bristol Temple Meads and Bristol Parkway Due to a fault with the signalling system between Bristol Temple Meads and Bristol Parkway fewer trains are able to run. Train services running through these stations may be cancelled. Disruption is expected until 10:00 19/11. Last Updated:19/11/2018 06:03

Now, if they could get the new printed timetable up on the website in PDF form that would be excellent. It's less than three weeks away - should be there.

It looks like none of the public mapping sites have updated their maps yet, which is a bit of a shame. Even Railcam, which is usually very on-the-ball, still has the previous layout with trains ‘disappearing’.
