Can you tell me more about the incident?
A points failure has been reported near Cosham, preventing trains from travelling on this route.
Points are movable sections of track that allow trains to change routes at junctions. If they develop a fault, they may not move into the correct position or the signalling system may be unable to confirm they are securely positioned. Sometimes, points can be secured in one position to allow some trains to continue. In this case, the points can be secured in a position that allows trains to use one route over the junction.
Network Rail signalling specialists are investigating the fault and working to restore services. Repairs may involve removing an obstruction, fixing the equipment or replacing faulty parts.
This disruption is expected to be impacting services until the end of Saturday the 14th of November
Ticket flexibility:
If your train is cancelled, you will be able to travel on an alternative service operated by any other participating train company, either two hours before or two hours after the original departure time of the cancelled service, in order to reach your destination.
If you decide not to travel or cannot complete your journey due to cancellations, you are entitled to a full refund from your original point of sale.
For further information and guidance please contact your train company or speak to a member of railway staff.
Check before you travel:
You can check your journey using the National Rail real-time Journey Planner.
Compensation:
You may be entitled to compensation if you experience a delay in completing your journey today. Please keep your train ticket and make a note of your journey, as both will be required to support any claim.
