An engineering works train from the night before had derailed on the catch points at the bottom of the bank between Exeter Central and Exeter St Davids (Loco: Class 66 (66111) and Wagons).
As a result, FGW services to Exmouth were terminated at St Davids, replacement buses between St Davids and Central, and an hourly service between Exeter Central and Exmouth.
South West Trains services between Exeter St Davids and London Waterloo ran as usual.

  • i like the way you caught a train just to film this......

  • i remeber that

  • I hate class 66s!

    446 locos that should have been built in Britain not built in bloomin Canada by an American company :-(

  • No I mean train announcements in SWT e.g We are now arriving at Southampton Central.

  • @lchampeny7nrr It was inside an engineering possesion during the night. The up and down changes in that area and there was a misunderstanding between the driver and signaller. The train was then propelled back through an open catch point. The driver involved has also been involved in 2 other SPADS over the last few months so will probably be looking for another job by now.

  • When u do more vids can u please do announcements from South West Trains I really like there announcements. Thank you.

  • Do more vids please.
