Overview

• GWR has warned that crew shortages on Sunday, July 27, are likely to force changes to published services across multiple key routes.
• Routes affected include Bristol Temple Meads to Gloucester and Taunton, Westbury to Portsmouth and Weymouth, and Reading to Gatwick and Basingstoke.
• Passengers should anticipate fewer trains, more crowded carriages and possible short-notice cancellations on the impacted lines.
• Where possible, limited rail replacement bus services will run but journey planners will not reflect timetable changes until Sunday morning.
• Customers holding pre-purchased tickets can claim full refunds at GWR.com/refunds if they decide not to travel.
