Description

Lines have now reopened following a fault with the signalling system between Yeovil Junction and Salisbury. However, whilst service recovers, trains running between theses stations may still be delayed by up to 30 minutes, cancelled or revised.

Disruption is expected until 17:00.

Customer advice:

Engineers have now fixed the issue and trains can now run normally between these stations. While the issue has been resolved, disruption will continue due to trains and crew being out of place.
