NO trains will be running to and from Frome over the Easter holiday as engineering works take place.
The work will take place from 10pm on Saturday April 19 to 10pm on Monday April 21, as Network Rail carries out track maintenance to enhance “safety and reliability”.

Trains between London and the south west, and trains between Westbury and Weymouth, will not stop at Frome and will instead use an alternative route.
A rail replacement service will operate between Frome and Westbury.
Marcus Jones, Network Rail’s Western route director, said: “I would like to thank passengers for their patience while we carry out these vital upgrades over the Easter break.
“While most of our network will be up and running, there will be bus replacement services operating in some areas, so please do check before travelling.
“We know that there’s never a good time to close the railway and this engineering work has been planned for a time when fewer people are travelling by train to reduce disruption. These upgrades will mean that passengers can continue to experience a safe and reliable railway into the future.”
