I am presuming that the Waterloo to Aldershot via Richmond and Ascot service, will continue on to Guildford from Aldershot, so that you still have this service in place?
The Guildford via Aldershot service to Ascot is currently being run by joining two class 456 2car trains together to form one a train and I suspect that this will go over to 5 car class 458/5 operations?
Not unless they train Guildford crews on the 458 stock AGAIN, it'll be the 3rd time if they do, as the traction knowledge lapsed about 2 years ago.
They'll also have to give Guildford crews the route knowledge from Ascot to Waterloo via both routes and Reading and there's no way they'll do that as it will cost them too much money, they've cut everything to the bone, that's why the system collapses when you get something like a fatality.
