Journeycheck is showing lots of cancellations on the B&H (Berks and Hants - railway line from Reading to Taunton via Westbury) and Cheltenham services due to "Severe Weather". I'm ok with the Boardmaster crowd busters being cancelled today given that the event itself was cancelled but how has that impacted local services much further east?

Looking out the window, have I missed something? Or are all these trains reliefs (surely not?)

Forget severe weather - what is actually going on is currently being discussed on the Devon & Cornwall board
