And the preceding service:

Quote
13:46 London Paddington to Great Malvern due 16:16 will be started from Worcester Shrub Hill.
It will no longer call at London Paddington, Reading, Didcot Parkway, Oxford, Hanborough, Charlbury, Kingham, Moreton-In-Marsh, Honeybourne, Evesham, Pershore and Worcestershire Parkway Hl.
This is due to a fault with the signalling system.

And after those two cancellations as far as services from London/Oxford to the Cotswolds are concerned:

Quote
Facilities on the 15:46 London Paddington to Great Malvern due 18:15.
Will be formed of 5 coaches instead of 9. There are no reservations on this service.
