The RMT union has announced strike action that will affect rail services on Thursday 20, Saturday 22, and Saturday 29 July.

On the RMT strike days a reduced, revised timetable will operate across several train operators, including GWR. However, in places like Falmouth, there will be no service at all.

To help customers, tickets for strike days will be valid for travel on alternative days on GWR services, as per below:

  • Tickets for Thursday 20 July and Saturday 22 July can be used the day before or up to and including Tuesday 25 July
  • Tickets for Saturday 29 July can be used the day before or up to and including Tuesday 1 August

Customers who purchased tickets but did not travel can claim a full refund or amend their ticket

Despite it not being strike days there could be further disruption today (19 July ) and Friday (21 June) due to industrial action short of a strike by the Aslef union. This is likely to cause some short-notice alterations or cancellations. So it's recommended to check before setting out on your journey.
