Animals On The Line
« on: October 30, 2006, 04:14:05 PM »

From the First Great Western Website :

15:11 Worcester Foregate Street to London Paddington due 18:24

This train will be started from Moreton-In-Marsh. It will no longer call at: Worcester Foregate Street, Worcester Shrub Hill, Pershore, Evesham and Honeybourne. This is due to animals on the line earlier.

Customers should travel forward on the next available service which departs Worcester Foregate Street 16:14, Worcester Shrub Hill 16:18, Pershore 16:26, Evesham 16:35 and Honeybourne 16:41.

The Westbury - Swindon hit a deer and had to turn back earlier thsi summer ... this one's not new.  With an occasional incident like this, fair enough ... I do note that passengers were just put back an hour which was probably the most efficient way to do it. Oh if only we HAD a service an hour later in our neck of the woods!
