.....and again...

Alterations to services between Reading and London Paddington

Due to a fault with the signalling system between Reading and London Paddington trains have to run at reduced speed on some lines.
Train services running to and from these stations may be delayed by up to 15 minutes or revised. Disruption is expected until 10:00 17/09.

Customer Advice
We are sorry for the delay to your journey this morning.

Network Rail are dealing with a couple of signalling issues in the Twyford / Slough area where trains have to run at reduced speed. Network Rail staff are on site trying to rectify both issues. To create some time between trains to fix the issues, the Newbury to Paddington services will only operate between Newbury and Reading (in both directions).

We are sorry for the disruption to your journey today, due to the emergency services dealing with an incident in the Reading area, all lines between Reading and London Paddington are currently blocked. Network Rail are working to get some of the lines open again as soon as possible. High speed long distance trains may be held in stations some distance away from the affected area, this is necessary to prevent further disruption to your journey.
