The Llama is a quadruped ( it is bigger than a frog )
Well spotted - a famous sketch. |

I have just hauled in St Andrews Road from the Fastnet Rock (home on my map of all unknown stations) to a location somewhere between Severn Beach and Avonmouth!

... is probably all you need to know about St Andrews Road. I write as a fervent supporter of the Severn Beach Line, by the way.  |

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

St Andrew's Road is getting at least one more semi-regular passenger. Me. Re-routeing of a local bus to serve that area means I have increased options for starting/ending rail journeys. Walk or bus to Shirehampton, bus to Avonmouth, or bus to St Andrew's Road. And if Henbury re-opens I'll have another option.  |

I start to see how you might change your id when the Filton bank work is complete

And a couple of slightly larger stations - Heathrow Terminal 4 Heathrow Terminal 5 Which have appeared on our feed for the first time. Does this mean Heathrow is becoming more a part of the main network and that you can now buy tickets to any UK▸ station there?  |

Nope - 'twas Gomshall An additional train service has been planned to operate as shown 21/01/15
07:11 Redhill to Gomshall due 07:31.
This is due to signalling problems. |

A nice red cross. No doubt meaning 'avoid like the plague'.  |

Due to engineering works trains were shuttling between the two and going no further. There's certainly no shuttle for the rest of the day and it looks as though there hasn't been one for most / all of today due to signalling problems at Southall. http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=15578.msg174342#msg174342There's also problems at Banbury according to FGWs▸ front page. A signalling problem at Princes Risborough is causing delays of up to 45 minutes to trains between Banbury and London Marylebone / London Paddington. This is expected to continue until 21:00.
First Great Western services between London Paddington and Bristol Temple Meads / Swansea are being diverted via this route due to planned engineering works taking place. I can't work out if this is shown on the cancellation map though. |

One of the Princes Risbourough delays was shown briefly earlier ... but mostly the diagram shows stopping pattern changes rather than delays. It's a thin layer on a feed - wasn't intended to last more than days and it's lasted years and years.
