RAIL services have been cancelled in Herefordshire today.
Network Rail said Hereford signal box will be closed between 11am and 6pm today (March 22) due to 'resourcing issues'.
The closure means there will be no services between Shrewsbury, Hereford and Newport for the period.
Operator Transport for Wales said it has arranged ticket acceptance with West Midlands, Cross Country, Avanti and GWR during this period. Customers can travel via Birmingham and Bristol Temple Meads.
