Extra stops this morning!  There are three reports that I've noticed along these lines

20080609   06:00   Portsmouth Harbour   09:41   Cardiff Central   extra stop(s)
"This train has been revised.It will additionally call at: Mottisfont & Dunbridge and Dean. "

Mottisfont & Dunbridge and Dean are stations with FGW▸ (First Great Western) managed when they took over the franchise (and I think they still do), but they don't normally stop at any longer.   In this case, though, a "good news" story as South West trains now provide a far more frequent service ... a sane step for all.

Buses ran from Exeter to Salisbury, and FGW▸ (First Great Western) were accepting SWT▸ (South West Trains) tickets on Paddington Services after the derailment.  I heard that 8 SWT sets were trapped.
