Description

A shortage of train crew across the Great Western Railway network is causing disruption to services. Trains services across the entire Great Western Railway network are subject to delay, cancellation and alteration.

Customer Advice

Routes West of Reading and Newbury are most likely to be affected by shortages and long distance services are expected to be very busy as a result. Customers are advised to allow extra time for their journey.

Great Western Railway control teams are making every effort to cover for these shortages and keep alterations to a minimum.
