ALL CHANGE at Cheltenham Spa | Network Rail Overrunning Engineering Works Cause Major Disruption! |
Major signalling rewire works around Gloucester have overrun, originally due to finish on Sunday 5 October but now continuing until Wednesday 8 October.
🔴 Impact on Services:
• No trains are running between Gloucester and Cheltenham Spa, Kemble, Bristol Parkway, or Lydney
• Rail replacement buses are operating between:
• Cheltenham Spa ↔ Gloucester
• Bristol Parkway ↔ Gloucester
• Kemble ↔ Gloucester
• Lydney ↔ Gloucester / Cheltenham Spa
• Cheltenham Spa ↔ Bristol Parkway (non-stop)
In this video, we take a look at the disruption caused – with CrossCountry services only able to reach as far south as Cheltenham Spa. A rare sight is also captured: CrossCountry units crossing over into Platform 2 at Cheltenham Spa, something you wouldn’t normally see during standard operations.
