"A cable fire near London Marylebone is blocking all lines into the
station. Trains to and from the station may be cancelled or amended to
start / terminate at West Ruislip / Harrow-on-the-Hill. Because of
this, journeys to and from London Marylebone will be delayed by up to
45 minutes."


I wonder how busy the ghost train to Paddington will be today, and
whether they will lengthen it? Or cancel it?

Terminating at West Ruislip is pathetic, BTW. Isn't there still
capability to turn trains at Wembley Stadium for events?

Faces the wrong way, up trains have to reverse into the siding, then
reverse into the down platform. Also seems to need a pilot man, at
least last time I watched it happening. Presumably it is not a
signalled move,
