It was last night. The unit was 'Great Western' if I recall correctly, and was labelled Intercity.
That'd be this one. Heritage 'Swallow' livery celebrating 40 years of the High Speed Train (InterCity 125):  |

Agreed. 17.49 to Worcester was 6mins late moving from the platform 'due to signal problems' and isn't moving very fast yet.
At first I attributed this to the 'Intercity' unit being used - I haven'ot seen a blue white and red unit for quite some time. 😳
Blue, white and red? Is Network South East still going?  Blue?.... |

Looking at the Open Train Times website maps the signallers have put the words 'Evaluator Fail' in the Up Relief train describer berths.....so multiple axle counter section failures are the result   I should have added that the Evaluator unit basically processes the axle counting for several sections to ensure the correct number of axles is counted out at the exit end of an individual section as were counted into it at the entrance end before the signalling system can treat the section as clear. |

By reputation they* are very reliable in the native territory (Germany) - much more so than track circuits. So what are NR» 's S&T▸ guys doing to ours to make them catch fire? * Thales Az LM▸ - Az for Achszahler, with an umlaut that I've left off as the forum's bad fairies will only steal it. |

Nothing on Journeycheck but a fair number of westbound services from Reading showing late on National Rail Enquires Live Departures as "this train has been delayed by a fault with the signalling system" at the moment...
