Cancellations to services between Exeter St Davids and Newton Abbot
Due to the emergency services dealing with an incident between Exeter St Davids and Newton Abbot the line is blocked.
Train services running through these stations may be cancelled, delayed or revised. Disruption is expected until 10:00 01/08.

Thoughts with all involved.

Not sure if it's
1J74 0641 Plymouth to London Paddington at Exeter St Thomas
or
2F08 0710 Paignton to Exmouth at Starcross
