I was waiting for that service and very annoyed that it was running when I left the house but cancelled before Moreton. Made me late for my evenings engagement.

Also the 8.35 Charlbury to Paddington was cancelled this morning -- not sure how many other stations were affected.

It ran non-stop from Worcester to Oxford I believe to make up almost half-an-hour of delay and do Shrub Hill to Paddington in 1h 45m!

05:52 Great Malvern to London Paddington due 08:27 has been delayed previously and is now 29 minutes late from Evesham.
This is due to a tree blocking the railway.
