No idea - the FGW▸ (First Great Western) website was referring to a train fault (i.e. another failed HST▸ (High Speed Train)) - they seem to be on the increase lately.

Another poorly HST▸ (High Speed Train) yesterday - 14:00 PNZ-PAD» (Paddington (London) - next trains) was cancelled at Plymouth arriving ~90 late after a weak compressor meant they kept losing air and the breaks kept kicking in all the way from Penzance, and running on 1 powercar afaik.

Well the 1751 up to this week was always a 2+7 or a mini buffet - if it is indeed the PNZ-PAD» (Paddington (London) - next trains) train then one would hope for the passengers sake its a 2+8

If you're referring to the 14:00 ex PNZ i'm pretty sure that theres no physical way that could be true... seeing as it doesn't arrive into Paddington until 19:24 :p

You're right!

I was thinking of an earlier PNZ arrival....

So that's two HSTs▸ (High Speed Train) down in less than 24 hours!
