Network Rail is advising passengers to check before travelling this weekend as emergency repair work takes place after recent storm damage between Welshpool and Newtown.

Engineers will be working between Welshpool and Newtown this weekend, Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th March 2020, to complete emergency repairs to an embankment following storm damage.

Passengers travelling between Shrewsbury and Newtown are urged to check before travelling as a rail replacement bus service will be in operation between the two stations.

Have you been affected by the recent stormy weather? Let us know in the comments below.

What did the officials say?

Bill Kelly, route director for Network Rail Wales and Borders said:

“The recent adverse weather has caused numerous issues all across the network. We are doing our best to make the necessary repairs as soon as possible and ensure the railway remains safe for trains to continue to run.

“I’d like to thank passengers and lineside neighbours for their patience as we carry out this emergency work and urge them to check before travelling at www.nationalrail.co.uk.”

Bethan Jelfs, customer delivery director for Transport for Wales Rail Services, said:
