Trains will be cancelled and timetables revised tomorrow as rail operators prepare for heavy snowfall.
South West Trains has announced it will be introducing a revised service for its routes through Somerset tomorrow in anticipation of the forecast snow.
Among its services due to operate under a special timetable tomorrow are trains on the London Waterloo to Salisbury, Yeovil and Exeter line, and the London Waterloo to Bournemouth and Weymouth line.
South West Trains customer service director Jake Kelly said: "Over the past few days, we have been carefully monitoring the weather forecast to enable us to make a decision about the level of service we should plan to run.
"With severe weather warnings in place for heavy snow on our network, we have taken the decision to put a special timetable in place for Friday.
"We know that what our passengers want most is certainty about when and how they are going to get to their destination.
"This special timetable helps ensure this by running slightly fewer services and allowing more time for trains to cope with poor conditions. In addition, it allows us to avoid train crew being in the wrong place which can cause further disruption.
"The revised timetable we have in place for Friday will help to ensure we make best use of our resources to deliver the most robust service we can for passengers should the forecasts prove accurate and help our passengers plan ahead."
