Default Massive Disruption at Paddington - Very Badly Handled Yet Again

This is very sad - but why so many at Southall anyway? It does seem to
be a regular occurance.


Today's "one under" was at Surbiton. I'm sure part of the reason is to
seek out a fast line to ensure instant despatch, but it's so unfair on
drivers.

Massive disruption across the SWT network this afternoon as a result,
including cancellations, diversions and late running of up to an hour.
SWT Dorking service cancelled, and Exeter/Salisbury services terminating
at Basingstoke. Even the Windsor line and Hounslow loop line were
affected. Some services not expected to return to normal until tomorrow.
