Between London Paddington and Bristol Temple Meads

Description

Engineering work is taking place between Didcot Parkway and Swindon, closing some lines.

The 23:33 London Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads service will divert between Reading and Bath Spa (via Newbury – not calling). It will not call Didcot Parkway, Swindon and Chippenham. A replacement bus will operate from Reading to drop off only at Swindon and Chippenham. Didcot Parkway customers should travel by this train and change at Reading.
