Trains arriving at Banbury railway station may be delayed by up to 10 minutes because of a signalling fault.

Due to a fault with the signalling system between Leamington Spa and Banbury, trains have to run at reduced speed on the line towards London, a spokesman for Chiltern Railways said.

It means that train services running through these stations may be delayed by up to 10 minutes.
