Customer Advice
Apologies to customers travelling between Westbury and Weymouth this afternoon. Unfortunately due to a shortage of train crew caused by a combination of late notice sickness and recent industrial action, some services are having to terminate short at Westbury and Bristol Temple Meads today. Currently, the 12:34 departure of Westbury to Weymouth is cancelled. We have a confirmed coach and x2 8 seater vehicles that will be in position to run instead of the train service (your rail ticket will be valid on this). These vehicles will depart Westbury at 12:34.
A reminder if travelling from an unstaffed station you may trigger one of the available help-points located on platform level, or alternatively you may contact one of our social media specialists via Twitter handle @GWRhelp for further assistance.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused to your journey with us today.
Replacement road transport services are conveying passengers between Westbury and Weymouth in that direction only until further notice. Arrangements have been made for Great Western Railway rail tickets to be accepted for these journeys.
