Problems between Coventry & Leamington Spa

[elementalpat]

Issues with signalling in this area today and NR tweets that it is likely to last all day with no trains operating between these two stations!

Most signal issues are fixed after a while, so I can only think that it maybe miscreants pilfering the cabling again

A signalling problem is causing disruption between Coventry and Leamington Spa.
Because of this, the following will apply until end of service:

• Trains are unable to run between Coventry and Leamington Spa. Trains between Birmingham New Street and Reading that normally run via Coventry will be diverted and not call at Birmingham International or Coventry
• A replacement bus service will run between Coventry and Leamington Spa.

Passengers travelling between Birmingham International and Leamington Spa / Oxford / Reading are advised to travel via Birmingham New Street.

Ticket acceptance
Passengers may use London Midland and Virgin Trains services between Birmingham New Street and Coventry.

Should be electrified and dual tracked by morning then?

Seriously though, when are they going start on the electrification?

CP5, so 2014 at the earliest.

This lasted all day. At Wolverhampton they were advising XC trains were not calling at BHI or COV.
