I have been looking at the trains coming into and out of Crewe on Real Time trains and noticed this come for a Transport for Wales train https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/24610/2021-05-10/detailed.

It states that the train is cancelled due to a problem with the electrified line. Is this just a problem between Crewe and Manchester? As there still seems to be Avanti West Coast trains scheduled between Liverpool and Euston.

The issue is between Newport and Cardiff according to National Rail Enquiries - it will have delayed that train on its journey north

TRAVEL ALERT There is damage to the overhead electric wires at Cardiff Central. There are currently no trains running between Cardiff and Newport. Our teams are on site now and are working to get passengers moving again. Check @tfwrail and @transport_wales before you travel
