16:23 Westbury to Swindon due 17:05
17:35 Swindon to Westbury due 18:19

17:35 Swindon to Westbury due 18:19 will be cancelled.
This is due to a problem currently under investigation.

Both re-instated half an hour later.

Oh dear - I think.

I have written before of how difficult it must be for the decision makers as a situation arises as to when to say something in public.  - but, really, broadcasting in public will be cancelled is a very definitive statement and to my gives no room for doubt - it's a statement that the train in question won't run.

I would (personally - is it just me?) like to see an option where a train service could be reported as being at  [low/some/high] risk of cancellation and with a note of a time by which the record will be updated.
