We have received the following update from Network Rail on the temporary revised timetable on the West of England between London Waterloo and Exeter St Davids.
To keep customers safe, trains have been running at reduced speeds between Tisbury in Wiltshire to Honiton in Devon, a 60-mile stretch of largely single-track railway which is particularly vulnerable to drought-like conditions.
