RAILWAY engineering work in the region this weekend will affect late night services on Sunday and into next week.

The 10.03pm, 11.03pm and 11.37pm London Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads services will arrive up to eight minutes later than usual at Chippenham, Bath Spa and Bristol Temple Meads on Sunday.

Then from Monday to Thursday the 10.15pm London Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads and 11.30pm London Paddington to Cardiff Central services will not call at Chippenham and Bath Spa.

Replacement buses will serve these stations while the engineering work is taking place. GWR has advised all passengers to double check the timings of services before leaving by visiting www.gwr.com or calling National Rail Enquiries on 03457 484950.

The work comes after a project on the line between Swindon and Chippenham which saw the route closed for nine days earlier while engineers carried out work to safeguard against flooding.
