Trains are being diverted on to a different line through the area while the track is fixed

Train travellers are facing delays and cancellations while repairs are carried out on the track at Didcot Parkway.

A fault with a rail means trains are being diverted on to a different line through the area.

It means trains between Oxford and Reading/London Paddington will not stop at Didcot Parkway, in either direction and fewer trains will run between Oxford and Didcot in both directions.

Tickets can be used via Reading for those travelling between Didcot Parkway and Oxford. They will also be accepted on CrossCountry services between Oxford and Reading in both directions. Disruption is expected until the end of the day.
