Description

Lines have reopened following disruption caused by a tree on the railway between Bodmin Parkway and Liskeard earlier today.

As services recover, trains running through these stations may still be cancelled, delayed by up to 30 minutes or revised as a result.

Disruption is expected until 17:30.

Customer advice:

If your train is cancelled, you may travel on either of the two services before, or two services after, your original train. If these are peak services or less flexible, you can still travel with your original ticket, at no extra cost.

You can check your journey using the National Rail real-time Journey Planner.

You may be entitled to compensation if you experience a delay in completing your journey today. Please keep your train ticket and make a note of your journey, as both will be required to support any claim.
