Landslip between Axminster and Honiton Affecting Train Services

A landslip has blocked the line between Axminster and Honiton, which means we are unable to run trains between these stations.

Trains are running between London Waterloo and Axminster, and a limited rail shuttle service is operating between Exeter St Davids and Honiton.

Rail replacement bus services are operating between Axminster and Exeter St Davids. Ticket acceptance is also in place with GWR and on local bus routes. 

Engineers are on site to assess the landslip and early indications are that the line will not reopen before the late afternoon of tomorrow, Wednesday 21 August. 

On Wednesday 21, a very limited rail replacement bus service will operate between Exeter St Davids and Axminster, however, customers travelling between these stations are advised to use alternative travel options. Ticket acceptance on GWR services and local bus routes will continue.
