RMT has announced industrial action being taken by RMT members on Wednesday 27th July, and ASLEF members (train drivers) on Saturday 30th July.
Services on strike days will be extremely limited, and on Saturday 30th July there will be no GWR services on most of the network. Where trains are able to run we are expecting them to be very busy, and the last services will be much earlier than normal. There will also be disruption on Thursday 28th July and Sunday 31st July.
The latest information regarding the strikes including when journey planners will be updated, advice to customers, and guidance on refunds and compensation is available at www.gwr.com/strike. Planned services in your area are also shown on the webpage.
There will be further updates on the impact on services on Saturday 30th July and Sunday 31st July next week.
There will be no rail replacement services in operation, and there is potential for further changes even on the day.
Anything you can do to alert your networks, constituents, members, staff and customers about the impact of the strike and the need to check before travelling would be very helpful.
