Due to forecasted severe weather between Shrewsbury (SHR) and Aberystwyth (AYW):
Services will be cancelled in both directions between Shrewsbury (SHR) and Aberystwyth (AYW).
We expect the incident to last until the end of the day and disruption to services is expected from 05:30 until the end of the day.
Alternative Travel Options:
Due to multiple cancellations throughout the day, customers travelling between Shrewsbury and Aberystwyth are advised to travel on our next available rail service.
However, for customers intending to travel on our 22:27 Aberystwyth to Machynlleth rail service, we have organised a bus to run between Aberystwyth and Machynlleth to assist customers to complete journeys where possible at no extra cost. This will arrive at Aberystwyth at approximately 22:27 provided by Lloyds.
These arrangements are in place on this service only.
Road Transport will take longer than rail services. Please allow extra time to complete your journey.
