SWR West of England line 24 to 28 April

[ABDeltic]

Issues with contaminated biofuel have been covered elsewhere but does anyone know what service SWR are running this week? Journey check says a 'revised service will operate until Friday 28th. I'm hoping there will be enough units to run something to Waterloo in the peaks

Thanks for the info. Was hoping there may be a few more trains but at least we know.

SWR will reinstate a full service from tomorrow:

SWR to restore full West of England timetable on Friday 28 April

www.southwesternrailway.com

We are reinstating the full West of England timetable on Friday 28 April.

To restore services as soon as possible, engineers at SWR’s Salisbury train care depot have performed enhanced maintenance on all affected trains.

Fuel tanks at the depot, which provide 35,000 litres of fuel to the diesel fleet every day, have been deep cleaned and are also using fresh fuel. These steps have restored train performance, allowing services to gradually be restored.

Noticed yesterday some had been reinstated from London, 1823 in particular. Alas didn’t notice until too late so had to stay in The Wellington a little longer before leaving
