14:16 Westbury to Swindon due 15:01

14:16 Westbury to Swindon due 15:01 has been previously delayed, is being further delayed between Trowbridge and Melksham and is now expected to be 15 minutes late.
This is due to the police dealing with an incident near the railway earlier today.

Facilities on the 13:41 Swindon to Weymouth due 15:51.
This is due to more trains than usual needing repairs at the same time.
Will be formed of 2 coaches instead of 3.

08:45 Swindon to Westbury due 09:26

08:45 Swindon to Westbury due 09:26 has been delayed at Swindon and is now 4 minutes late.
This is due to the train guard being taken ill.

Get well soon, Mr Train Manager.

I am not so sure it was cancelled in the end.  A train left the bay at Swindon for Westbury four minutes late running as 2M22 rather than with an empty stock headcode.   It was then shown on Tiger as calling at the usual stations.

08:45 Swindon to Westbury due 09:26

08:45 Swindon to Westbury due 09:26 will be starting late from Swindon.
This is due to train crew being delayed by service disruption.

And if you wonder where the train crew got held up:

08:45 Swindon to Westbury due 09:26

08:45 Swindon to Westbury due 09:26 will be started from Chippenham.
It will no longer call at Swindon.
This is due to train crew being delayed by service disruption.

33 minutes late from Westbury.   Had to wait at Bradford Junction for a freight train sent ahead of it to clear the single line at Thingley, 40 minutes late by Melksham.   Turning back at Chippenham (there now) so it looks like it will then be on time.

12:17 Westbury to Swindon due 12:59

12:17 Westbury to Swindon due 12:59 is being delayed between Melksham and Chippenham.
This is due to congestion.

Not exactly sure what was going on ... on time at Melksham but 17 minutes late at Chippenham.

13:15 Swindon to Westbury due 13:56

13:15 Swindon to Westbury due 13:56 has been delayed at Swindon and is now 11 minutes late.
This is due to a road vehicle colliding with a bridge.

I think we've got 'em all today!

The down line and Platform 1 at Chippenham were closed for a while so a Bristol bound service had to run reversible on the up line from Wootton Bassett junction to Thingley and use platform 2 at Chippenham.  This trapped the TW service on the single line.

The service then lost more time on its way to Swindon because of the bridge strike at Christian Malford.
