TRAIN DERAILMENT - KEMBLE Jan 16, 2007 3:22:47 GMT

The following is quoted from the National Rail website:

Time Reported	15^th Jan 22:59
Route Affected	London Paddington – Reading – Swindon – Kemble - Gloucester - Cheltenham Spa
TOC(s) Affected	First Great Western
Description	Train services between Stroud and Swindon are being disrupted due to a train derailment in the Kemble area after a landslip. There are no reports of any injuries to members of the public or train crew. Train services are at a stand and subject to alteration. There is currently no estimate for a normal train service to resume.

Suprisingly, First Great Western's website has no mention of the derailment at all, the Live Update page states there are no network updates.

(however, considering the geology of that area, it's not that unreasonable IMHO)
