This is due to a fault on this train.
All train faults / More trains than usual needing repairs at the same time. Is there some general problem?
I'm not sure what the diagram is this summer of the Saturday Swindon to Weymouth train, but can anyone advise if the risk of it being cancelled tomorrow (I think it's been a Reading based unit in the past) is significant?

There have been quite a few cancellations over the last few weeks with the Didcot - Oxford/Banbury services for the same reason; so I assume that they GWR are having problem maintaining these units. And they certainly don't have enough spare capacity.

Last Saturday the Weymouth service was operated by 166 207. I believe all the 166s are based at St Philip’s Marsh.
Today that unit is currently heading from Bristol Temple Meads to Warminster before going to Gloucester.
After another round trip to Westbury and back and an outing to Weymouth, it will go to Bristol again before ending its day at Westbury.
Last Friday it was covering Cardiff/Portsmouths.
Whether it was first choice for last week’s Swindon-Weymouth or a last minute replacement, I don’t know.
