This morning a person was hit by a train at Cholsey - all four tracks
were closed for some hours in the morning rush-hour to about mid-day.

This afternoon a person was hit by a train at Ealing Broadway - again
all four tracks were closed. In fact at Paddington - at one time -
there were NO services departing or arriving. In fact at one time the
departure board was completely black indicating that nothing was
running at all. This affected main line and local services to / from
Heathrow. As usual BAA failed to arrange alternative transport for
HEX / HConn Airport passengers.


Obviously the electric HEx trains were screwed, but why couldn't they
route at least some diesel trains through Castle Bar Park?


There's a very complete answer on uk.railway
