Reported there. 1P71 1831 Oxford - Paddington Involved

EDIT: Currently being treated as suspicious. Some services where practicle as being sent back to padd on the down and on the country being sent back West on different diagrams.

Other trains will have a long wait unfortunately, all four lines closed, until BTP say otherwise

Services which cant get through and have departed Paddington are being reversed back into the station.

BTP Paddington tweeted just under half an hour ago that the line will be closed for some time still.

Just been talking to the driver who found him. He's an old hand,a bit shaken up but he's ok thankfully.

I had an AP single for the 2330 PAD-CDF. Just jumped on the heavily delayed 2245 PAD-SWA service which left at 0011.

Another old hand involved in that one, fair to say the driver involved is a true character and I mean that in the best possible way!

FGW have not had a good day!

FGW have not had a good couple of months. Been caught in fatality disruption twice on the Reading-Padd stretch in that period, first time was the last weekend in August. Every time I've seen these incidents play out on Twitter I've been glad not to have been travelling.
