GREAT Western Railway has reminded customers to check their journeys and travel plans as it lays out its levels of service during upcoming strikes.

The ASLEF union, which represents train drivers, is set to strike again on Wednesday, February 1, and Friday, February 3.

Much of the GWR network will see no services.

Limited services, which start later and finish earlier (between 7.30am and around 7.30pm), will run only on the routes between:

  • London Paddington and Bristol Temple Meads

  • Bristol Temple Meads and Cardiff

  • Reading and Basingstoke

  • Reading and Oxford

  • Reading and Redhill

  • Swindon and Westbury

  • Exeter St Davids and Exmouth

  • Exeter St Davids and Paignton

  • Plymouth and Gunnislake

  • Penzance and St Ives

Passengers travelling these routes are asked to check their journeys and are reminded that these services will be busier than usual.

Unlike previous industrial action, the days in between and after strikes are not expected to be subject to significant disruption.

Customers who have already booked tickets for strike days can get their tickets refunded or amended, and those who still wish to travel will be able to use relevant tickets to travel up to and including Tuesday, February 7.

For full details about refunds, tickets, and travelling on strike days, visit: www.gwr.com/strike
