12:27 Southampton Central to Great Malvern due 16:29
12:27 Southampton Central to Great Malvern due 16:29 will be diverted between Westbury and Trowbridge.
It will be delayed between Westbury and Trowbridge and is expected to be 3 minutes late.
This is due to a fault on this train.
Will be formed of 2 coaches instead of 3 between Bristol Temple Meads and Great Malvern.
Additional Information
Customers will be required to change trains at Bristol TM▸ (Train Manager, or possibly Ticket Machine, depending on context) today.

Turning it on the triangle?  Something wrong with one of the cabs?

Windscreen wiper fault. Turned on the triangle to allow the unit to remain in service as far as Bristol where a set swap was made.
