A later one did
11:30 Cardiff Central to Portsmouth Harbour due 14:51
11:30 Cardiff Central to Portsmouth Harbour due 14:51 was diverted between Bath Spa and Trowbridge and will be diverted between Romsey and Fareham.
It will no longer call at Bradford-On-Avon and Southampton Central but will call additionally at Chippenham, Melksham and Eastleigh.
It has been previously delayed, will be further delayed due to the diversion and is expected to be 13 minutes late.
This is due to a tree blocking the railway earlier today.

Diversions make sense.
Since the local trains thorough Melksham have been culled, should these divesion be calling to maintain a service? Cheaper for GWR than providing buses and taxis, good for the PR and future re-assurance of passengers in Melksham.
