Just spotted a tweet from Ollie (@fgwollie) mentioning that there may be possible disruption on the North Cotswolds Line tomorrow morning following cable theft at Honeybourne.

The problem was there on Monday evening. Coming back from London on the 19:22, we stopped at Littleton level crossing (? - it was dark) and then ran slowly from there to Evesham.
