  • Heavy snow and high winds moving into western, north-western and central parts of England and Wales this afternoon means disruption to trains in some parts of the national network.
  • Some lines in parts of Wales are closed as of 1600 today (Thursday 8 January) and a rare red weather warning for high winds means all trains will be suspended in Cornwall, England, from 1800. Further line closures are expected in the West and East Midlands and North West overnight and Friday morning as the weather system moves north and east.
  • Disruption will continue overnight and into Friday, including changes to services on the West Coast Main Line and potential line closures elsewhere.

Passengers planning to travel are strongly advised to check their full journeys as this is a developing situation and alterations to services may be made at short notice.
