The Met Office has issued a red weather warning for large parts of southern England and Wales over the coming days. Services may be subject to short-notice changes and cancellations.

In line with national travel advice, customers are advised to check before travelling on Tuesday and only travel if absolutely necessary on Wednesday and Thursday.

We will run an amended timetable on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. During this time, fewer trains will be running across the network. Trains that run are expected to be busier and journey times will likely be longer than usual.

We plan to update journey planners with service changes for Tuesday at 02:00 on Tuesday morning. Wednesday and Thursday amendments will be updated at 02:00 on Wednesday morning.
