TRAIN services into London Paddington have been almost fully restored today, however passengers are being urged to check their train journeys into London.
All Services into the station were cancelled for much of yesterday after a test train operated by Hitachi damaged 500m of overhead wires in the Hanwell area last night.
Network rail has confirmed that all four lines between Reading and London Paddington have now been re-opened, however, it warns that there may still be disruption to some services.
👷👷♀️ Following a huge effort overnight all four lines between Reading and London Paddington are now open.
