CANCELLATION OF AFTERNOON SERVICES - Wednesday 12th August 2026

Due to the extreme temperatures forecast for Wednesday 12th August, we have made the difficult decision to suspend all our afternoon services (where the temperature is forecast to be hottest) for the safety of our passengers, staff and volunteers.

As a result, the following services will not operate:

Minehead to Bishops Lydeard

  • 14.30
  • 15.25
  • 16.30

Bishops Lydeard to Minehead

  • 10.55
  • 14.35
  • 16.25

This decision has been made with passenger, staff and volunteer welfare as our highest priority. The forecast extreme heat also presents increased risks to our railway infrastructure, and we believe the risks associated with operating these services are too high.

All passengers who had pre-booked tickets for Wednesday 12th August have been contacted by email. If you have a booking for Wednesday and have not received an email from us, please contact our team at [email protected].

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.
