A NUMBER of train services running between Chippenham and Bristol have been cancelled due to a shortage of train drivers.
First Great Western has confirmed their train services will be affected from 12.30pm today.
A FGW spokesperson said: “Staff absences mean we do not expect to be able to run our full service from Chippenham.
“We have arranged for rail tickets to be accepted on local buses and are making arrangements for coaches.
“These will be limited and we are therefore asking customers heading west from Chippenham to consider travelling later in the day. We apologise for the inconvenience”
A full list of services that will run is available from the First Great Western website www.firstgreatwestern.co.uk
