Yeovil and Crewkerne service to London disrupted

South Western Railway have announced rail repairs following another landslip on their tracks. The landslip is between Woking and Basingstoke. Network Rail engineers will require access to two of the four tracks between Woking and Brookwood to repair a landslip that occurred in late November. 

As a result a severely reduced service will run between Woking and Basingstoke from Wednesday 27 to Friday 29 December. 

Services from London Waterloo to Basingstoke, Exeter, Portsmouth via Basingstoke, Salisbury and Southampton will all be affected. This means anyone travelling from Yeovil, Crewkerne or Templecombe to and from London will face disruption.

On all three days, some of the first services from London Waterloo through Woking and Basingstoke will start later each day, at around 7am. 

Customers whose trains run between Woking and Basingstoke are asked to only travel if absolutely necessary between Wednesday 27 and Friday 29 December. 

SWR say if customers must travel, they should check their journeys carefully using journey planners. These will be up to date by Saturday 23 December.
