I just think this is very disappointing for those hoping to travel by train for a day out in Weymouth today that GWR (Great Western Railway) have canned the two trains that the overwhelming majority would have chosen to travel on.

I know that the 17.03 from Temple Meads to Weymouth was cancelled yesterday. I have no idea if all other services ran. I was on the 16.48 service to Warminster which didn't leave until about 17.17, even though it was waiting on the platform well before its scheduled departure time. All very frustrating.
