1st October 2024
Passengers services during the early morning period at Taunton were thrown into a period of disruption on the Tuesday 1st October 2024. Overnight engineering work just south of Bristol overran after a road rail maintenance vehicle had an oil leak rendering it unable to move, and dropping its oil on the track. No passenger services could operate between Taunton and Bristol until the Road Rail Vehicle was retrieved. Two-car Class 158 No.158762 is pictured in Platform 2 at Taunton, having been cancelled on its booked service to Bristol (normally departing Taunton at 05:10), the unit was re-diagrammed to operate 2C61 06:09 Taunton - Exeter St Davids (the diagram having been cancelled between Bristol and Taunton).
