Glastonbury Festival: Warning over GWR train delays out of London after incident shuts tracks

Passengers heading out of London for Glastonbury Festival are facing delays after the trains were halted this morning.

Great Western Railway (GWR) said earlier that all lines were blocked at West Ealing, in the west of the capital, due to “the emergency services dealing with an incident near the railway”.

The British Transport Police have since confirmed that there was a fatality on the tracks.

Services to and from London Paddington have been effected, which is on the route serving Castle Cary in Somerset , the nearest station to Glastonbury Festival.

A spokesperson for the train operator confirmed to The Independent that lines have now reopened.

”Trains are now moving into and out of Paddington, including those serving Glastonbury festival, but there will be some residual delays due to misplaced trains and crew,” they added.

There have been reported of dozens of would-be passengers forced to sit on the floor at the London station while waiting for information on their trains.

Travellers being warned to expect disruption until at least midday.

“Officers were called to the line near West Ealing at around 7.30am today (27 June) following reports of a casualty on the tracks,” a British Transport Police spokesperson said.

“Paramedics also attended, however sadly a person was pronounced dead at the scene. The incident is not being treated as suspicious and a file will be prepared for the coroner.”

GWR said earlier this month that it planned to provide more than 28,600 seats on trains from London Paddington to Castle Cary between Wednesday and Friday for festivalgoers.

It warned that early and mid-morning trains on Wednesday and Thursday were almost fully booked.

Earlier this week, the RAC warned drivers drivers not to rely on their sat-navs and instead follow the official signs to get them all the way to the Worthy Farm festival as easily as possible, as more than 200,000 people descend on the legendary music event.

RAC Breakdown spokesperson Alice Simpson that “traffic jams are enough to drive people ‘totally crazy’ at the best of times” – referencing the lyrics of hit song from Shania Twain, who is performing this weekend – adding that they can “be even more frustrating if you’ve already been travelling for hours with a carful of tents and camping equipment. While it will be extremely difficult to avoid heavy traffic on the final roads leading to Glastonbury, you can take several steps to make the experience more bearable.

Train passengers have been warned off severe disruption affecting London Euston station during peak rush hour.

Travel to and from London Euston train station has been hit by delays and cancellations on one of the hottest days of the year.

Disruption is expected until the end of the day.

Frustrated passengers took to X (formerly Twitter) after their trains were affected.

Some passengers claimed their Avanti West Coast train has been ‘stranded’ at Coventry station for more than an hour, with one saying it is ‘very hot conditions on board.’

The passenger asked Avanti: ‘Could you not at least pass water to everyone on board the train.’

Avanti’s customer service responded on X, saying teams ‘are working very hard to get this issue resolved as quickly as possible.’

Will train and tube stations be impacted? 

London Underground and train stations will all be open as usual, but prepare for crowds as stations around the parade are expected to be very busy.  

Will buses still be running? 

Buses will be running but of course won't be able to access roads when they are closed, so some services are likely to be diverted. 

How to get to the Pride Parade?

You'll be able to watch the parade from anywhere along its route , but some of the best views will be from Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square, Haymarket, and Whitehall.

The closest Tube station to Trafalgar Square and Whitehall is Charing Cross, with Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus stations also being close to the action. You can access Charing Cross via a mainline train or the Bakerloo or Northern lines.

I took a plane and a train on the 330-mile London to Edinburgh route. The race was closer than you might expect.

• The 332 miles between London and Edinburgh takes a similar amount of time by plane or train.
• I took both modes of transport and timed how long it took from the center of each city.
• The train was only slightly longer, but cheaper, more comfortable — and more convenient.

The 332 miles between London and Edinburgh show a particularly narrow difference when traveling via train or plane .

While the flight takes about an hour compared to a nearly five-hour train ride, there's also time spent traveling to the airport and waiting to board.

I grew up near London, and because my dad is from Edinburgh, we visited the Scottish capital every summer. We flew once or twice, but it was typically easier to take the train.

Last month, I visited Edinburgh for a press event and took the opportunity to time my journeys. I traveled north on an LNER Azuma train and returned the next day on a British Airways Airbus A320 .

The contest was indeed close, and even though the train took longer, it was cheaper and more enjoyable.

I started my stopwatch at Trafalgar Square in the heart of London.

A plaque here reads: "On the site now occupied by the statue of King Charles I was erected the original Queen Eleanor's cross, a replica of which stands in front of Charing Cross station. Mileages from London are measured from the site of the original cross."

Similarly, the center of Edinburgh is traditionally measured from a now-demolished post office near the train station.

Already, this highlights the main benefit of traveling by train — especially in a city like Edinburgh where the main attractions are in a compact area.

It was only a short walk to the nearest Tube station, and I was on a train within 8 minutes.

I arrived at King's Cross Station about 20 minutes before my train departed, which gave me plenty of time.

There was an unusually big crowd of people for a Wednesday afternoon because some other trains had been delayed. Luckily, mine was on time.

It was only a short wait before our platform number was announced and passengers flooded toward the ticket barriers. We departed on time, 37 minutes after I left Trafalgar Square.

In Edinburgh, I took a 35-minute tram journey from the center to the airport. The security line was pretty speedy.

I arrived at the airport an hour and 50 minutes before my flight's departure time.

With time to sit around, I had lunch in a Wetherspoons pub. Given my experiment, I found all the train memorabilia ironic — but this also signals the strong history of British railways.

I'd been at the airport for an hour by the time the gate opened — then another 25 minutes before I boarded.

Unfortunately, my flight was delayed by 45 minutes. I adjusted for that on my timer, but we still wouldn't have taken off until two-and-a-half hours after I left Waverley station.

All the plane timings in this piece exclude the delay.

London to Edinburgh is clearly a popular route for BA, as before the safety demonstration, the pilot said: "I know many of you are probably frequent fliers."

For those regularly making this journey, there's the benefit of loyalty points which you wouldn't get on a budget airline or a train.

By the time we took off, my train had almost reached York, its third stop on the East Coast Main Line, and roughly halfway to Edinburgh.

But the flight itself would take just over an hour, traveling at roughly 300 mph versus the train's top speed of 125 mph..

The only true high-speed rail in Britain goes between London and the Channel Tunnel. A second line on the West Coast, known as HS2, is planned to be Europe's fastest — but construction has been delayed and cut down.

On the other hand, the train is far better for the environment given that it carries more people. I traveled on a Class 801/2 which has 611 seats compared to the plane's 180.

Soon after takeoff, the flight attendants offered passengers a free bottle of water and either peanuts or cookies.

The LNER has a café car on board, but wasn't serving any hot food on my journey. You can also order via a QR code on the seatback.

However, I found the legroom and seat width to be less than ideal, even at 5-foot-9.

I flew on a British Airways Airbus A320 for $195. It's definitely better than flying budget.

On the train, I was comfortable with plenty of room — plus an extending tray table for my laptop.

The free Wi-Fi wasn't great, but I wrote a Business Insider article. I spent the rest of the journey reading or taking in the views.

After three and a half hours total, the plane landed at a sunny Heathrow Airport, but it took another 20 minutes to leave, with time to deplane and a long jet bridge walk.

The timings were aided by the fact that I only had hand luggage.

I took the Elizabeth Line and the Tube back to Trafalgar Square, arriving 4 hours and 52 minutes later.

No budget airline uses Heathrow, so it would take even longer to reach the center if you flew with easyJet or Ryanair.

By train, I reached the center of Edinburgh after 5 hours and 21 minutes.

If you have checked bags or were traveling with a budget airline, the plane would take just as long, if not longer.

I found the train to be more comfortable and convenient. Plus, if you book in advance, it would likely be cheaper than a budget airline.

The LNER starts at £49 ($62). While a Ryanair flight starts at £17 ($21), the price of a checked bag — plus the train into London from Stansted Airport — would bring that up to £65 ($82).

So, if you're visiting the UK and want to visit both cities, the train would be cheaper since luggage is free.

Plus, there's the added benefit of seeing so much of the countryside, and some great seaside views too.
