Rail services are being disrupted due to a power supply problem.

The issue between Weymouth and Wareham means all lines running between these stations are closed.

Rail replacement buses have been arranged for passengers between Weymouth and Wareham in both directions, calling at all stations.

Train services to and from the stations are expected to be disrupted until 15:00 BST.

Routes affected:

  • Great Western Railway between Weymouth and Gloucester

  • South Western Railway between Weymouth and London Waterloo
