Setting up day today as soon as students have left the building. It's Friday, they won't hang around, I never did.

Rail passengers are never free of weekend engineering works these days but the intrepid enthusiast will not be put off. There's a bus replacement between Shrewsbury and Newport. Two of the four lines between Newport and Severn Tunnel Junction are closed changing timetables by a few minutes in each direction. 

Nearest M4 junction is J32 Coryton.

Good weather is expected.

Let's hope that there will be no engineering works on the layouts to disrupt running trains.

Visitors travelling by rail will have the chance to experience TFW/Keolis-Amey services and perhaps spot the only train so far in the new livery. It may be worth confirming that the Welsh lines affected by last week's storm are working normally.

The free shuttle bus runs from Central on Saturday only.
