Just tried to visit gwr.com and get redirected to http://94.136.40.51/gwr.com/index.html

Looks like we'll all just have to head down to our local ticket office for any information....

Indeed - I found that. and if you go to http://gwr.com you find that it redirects you to that URL given.   I suspect they're updating, perhaps rehosting... and there may be some issues with name service caching.

Odd.
Both sites above take me to a register your site now type.
When I type in GWR (Great Western Railway) on the search engine, and click direct, I go direct to their site

Having cleared cookies, et all, the results haven't changed.
However, I can still type in GWR (Great Western Railway) and enter their site from there.
Not a problem really for me.
