There's what looks like an unusual pair of cancellations today:

12:52 London Paddington to Worcester Foregate Street due 15:11 has been cancelled.

20:03 Worcester Foregate Street to London Paddington due 22:23 will be cancelled.

Last Updated:01/06/2024 13:22

But, in practice, the 15:11 arrival goes and sits in 'Worcester Back Road' from 15:34 until 19:35 - a very odd piece of scheduling.

Oh dear - tempting fate there. Train 1P02, the 05:23 Hereford to London Paddington, left Hereford on time but was 20 late at Ledbury and is still 18 late at Honeybourne.

It's the effect my birthday has!  The sun usually shines, too (yesterday being an exception for most of daylight hours)

More belated birthday wishes!

Meanwhile, can we add the birthday to 'On this day' - preferably with advance warning so that we can plan to travel on a 'good' day?

Quote
15:18 Hereford to London Paddington due 18:29 will be started from Worcester Shrub Hill.
This is due to this train being late from the depot.
Last Updated:05/06/2024 13:50

The outward journey, 1W02 11:52 Paddington - Hereford, was started from Reading today. It departed 46 late, and was 63 late by the time it arrived at Shrub Hill, after which it was cancelled.

Quote
18:57 London Paddington to Great Malvern due 21:20 will be starting late from London Paddington.
This is due to a late running train being in front of this one.

I took some executive decisions when starting "On this day" and one was to steer clear of people's birthdays and too many accidents and closures.   There has been temptation - the other day, with nothing listed, I noticed in was th Birthday of Claude Lane ... a remarkable man, but a classic example of "well - if him then how about ..." hundreds of others.  Just one has (somehow) made it - "Birth of Colonel Holman Fred Stephens'

I'd never heard of him - so I did some 'digging'!  Smiley
