Cambrian
line
reopens
after
accident

Train
services
have
returned
to
the
Cambrian
line
this
moning
after
the
collision
between
two
passenger
trains
a
week
ago
at
Talerddig,
in
which
one
passenger
died
and
15
were
injured,
four
seriously.
Evidence
from
the
scene
is
now
being
considered
by
the
Rail
Accident
Investigation
Branch,
which
has
said
rail
adhesion
was
‘relatively
low’.

Signalling
upgrade

No
trains
are
running
in
south
London
between
Crystal
Palace,
Tulse
Hill
and
Peckham
Rye
so
that
signalling
can
be
upgraded.
The
possession
began
on
Saturday
and
will
continue
until
1
November.
Network
Rail
hopes
that
the
upgrade
will
reduce
the
number
of
delays
caused
by
signalling
problems,
following
similar
work
between
East
Croydon
and
London
Victoria
in
2022
which
it
says
reduced
delays
by
more
than
half.
