stalled on Filton bank, any one know any more about if the tour is off or is heading on to Cardiff?
Basic arithmetical error.

Know nothing more about it, only heard it stalled and delay any following services.
I headed down to FAW from Patchway to see if there was anything about and couldn't see anything.
It wont be the first time Filton Bank has got the better of Tangmere...

I drove past the crowd on the bridge and ended up on Pilning station.
Perhaps we all ought to be wearing badges so we can identify each other

Return leg for the King at Pilning. Not the best time of day to capture a video.
