Travel for Sunday 24 November
Due to engineering work between Reading and London Paddington, and crew availability, we expect significant disruption to service this Sunday.
No trains will operate between London Paddington and Reading before 1115. After 1115 a reduced service will be able to run between London Paddington and Bristol Temple Meads, as well as between London Paddington and Devon/Cornwall. We also expect some disruption to local services within the Bristol and Exeter areas.
On Sunday morning services will start from or terminate at Reading, where customers will be able to change for South Western Railway services to Waterloo; or Elizabeth Line services to Slough where they can change for replacement bus services to Ealing Broadway and on to the London Underground network.
After 1115 fewer trains will run on these routes and those that do will be very busy. Services may also be cancelled or delayed at short notice.
Because of the late notice changes, and the complexity of updating timetable systems, journey planners will not show all changes correctly before Sunday morning.
We're sorry for the impact this will have on your journey. We advise customers to only travel if absolutely necessary and change plans if possible.
To support you to do so, if you have already bought tickets for this Sunday, these will be valid on Saturday 23 or Monday 25 November. Alternatively, if you no longer wish to travel, you can claim a full refund at gwr.com/refunds.
