Castle Cary sees several South Western Railway services each weekday. Indeed, and one of them (at 13:45 Mondays to Fridays) is a through train that starts at Yeovil Junction and goes all the way to Waterloo :D. Next Saturday and Sunday, there is a two hourly Waterloo to Exeter via Castle Cary and Yeovil service; I suspect the direct Salisbury to Yeovil line is closed for engineering. It doesn't actually call at Castle Cary, so I don't suppose the extra parking spaces will be much use in that case!
