CrossCountry are conveying passengers via any reasonable route until further notice. Arrangements have been made for Great Western Railway rail tickets to be accepted for these journeys.
(Do CrossCountry have a way of travelling over failed pointwork then)

1Z78 1315 Exeter St Davids to Plymouth has escaped, 39 minutes down, followed by
2T20 1323 Exmouth to Paignton, on time.

Points failure at eastern end then, rather than western end possibly.
1C77, 1C78, 2C73 all queued waiting to arrive, with 1V50 enroute to join at the back.
