Title: Emergency engineering work - 25 Jun 17 Post by: bobm on June 24, 2017, 08:55:59 Network Rail are doing some emergency engineering work tomorrow (Sunday 25th June) in Patchway Tunnel.
Services to and from South Wales will operate via Stroud, Gloucester and Chepstow. Some services from Wales will leave earlier to maintain on time arrivals in England, while those heading west will arrive in Wales later than published. Some Golden Valley services will be retimed to make room for the extra trains using that route. Some HSTs to and from Bristol Temple Meads will be extended to and from Bristol Parkway.

Just one query
Quote Replacement buses will run between Bristol Parkway and Filton Abbey Wood. This will connect with the Cardiff shuttle train for customers travelling between South Wales and Bristol Parkway. I'm suspecting a slip up between Parkway and Patchway?

Train services running through these stations may be delayed or diverted via Gloucester. Disruption is expected until 07:15 26/06. Further Information The first few services from South Wales to London this morning will be diverted via (and call additionally at) Gloucester and will not call at Bristol Parkway.
