Some queues of trains building up on the Up Main at Slough West, and the Down Relief at Dolphin Jn. And there aren’t many class 9 trains, so it looks like the Elizabeth Line service had been thinned out.

Disruption now till 1700 Elizabeth Line suspended West Drayton -Reading. I was travelling back from Windsor to Reading at about 5pm yesterday, and at that time, most trains running from Windsor & Eton Central to Slough were cancelled, due, I was told, to this points failure. I thought that line ran completely independently from the main lines through Slough, so don't understand why this points failure impacted on it. Fortunately I had my Brompton and could cycle to Slough, where the Elizabeth line train was then (about 5.30pm) running normally. |

Although it’s largely independent of the main lines it’s a fully signalled route and there’s also the siding which has points controlling it. It looked like the unit had been put away in there yesterday evening as a result of whatever was wrong..

I'm not a signalling engineer so I'm kinda guessing if one of the sets of points lost point detection in the connection onto the DN Main the DN Main and Windsor branch signals would fail safe (Red), the quick fix may have been to clamp the Windsor Branch points, the S&T▸ to do some overriding of the interlocking to allow the DN Main return to normal, as the branch is signalled the Windsor service may have had to be suspended due to the logic of the interlocking. I could be wrong |

05:10 Bristol Temple Meads to London Paddington due 07:37

It will no longer call at Thatcham, Theale and London Paddington.
It has been delayed at Pewsey and is now 27 minutes late.
The return journey now starting from Reading.
This is due to a fault with the signalling system.
