Strange, as it seems to be the Down Relief blocked (but only for electric services) between Twyford and Reading.....  |

I'm travelling from Worcester to Paddington this afternoon.
Pulled out of Oxford on time, but then there's an immediate announcement about problems ahead of us (a trespass incident at Hanwell), with everything backed up to Didcot. Having that announcement before leaving Oxford would've been useful - could have gone to Marylebone instead.
Anyway, we get to Reading 20 late. After sitting in the platform, there's an announcement that we're not going any further. Please transfer to the train on the other side of the platform.
So we do that. And after 10 minutes, that one is cancelled as well.
Question - do we (1) sit it out and wait, or (2) go home and try again first thing tomorrow, or (3) go (very slowly) to Waterloo.
(2) difficult, because nothing is coming through from Paddington. The two cancelled trains are still sitting there. I'd've thought that running them back where they came from might help with clearing the traffic from Reading.
So here I am on the (very slow) stopper to Waterloo...

It’s the high viaduct just to the west of Hanwell station that bridges over a river and park area. I personally witnessed somebody threatening to take their own life stood on that viaduct wall many years ago. They were talked down by staff in the end before police had arrived. |

Thanks for that. I eventually got off the Waterloo stopper at Richmond (to travel onwards by Underground) at 19:14, so some 92 minutes late. |
