December 6th - System failure brings UK rail services to a halt
Update: 2024-12-06
Description
I am at London Paddington station, hub for the Great Western Railway serving the West of England and South Wales. There's disruption to many trains here and elsewhere in the country due to the earlier failure of the Network Rail communications system, known as GSM-R.
This is an embarrassment for the government in a week in which ministers have assured the public that train delays can only get better.
