Route(s) affected

Between Liskeard and Looe

Description

Flooding of the railway line between Liskeard and Looe means that all lines are closed. As a result of this, trains running between these stations will be cancelled.

Disruption is expected until 12:00.

Customer advice:

Rail replacement transport provided by A2B minibus will depart Liskeard and Looe at train times and call at Sandplace in both directions. Please wait for the minibus at the rail replacement bus stops. The replacement road transport may run later than the advertised train times owing to the additional time taken by road between stations and the time required for loading and unloading at each stop.

If you are travelling from Coombe Junction Halt, St Keyne Wishing Well Halt or Causeland please use the Customer Help Point or contact National Rail Enquiries on 03457 484 950 detailing the total number of passengers in your party and your intended destination.

Additional information:

Great Western Railway are working with Network Rail to be able to re-open the line. The water levels have now receded and Network Rail will be arranging for the bridges to be inspected in daylight. Some of the inspections require the use of divers, so that the parts of the bridge below the water level can be inspected.
