From Monday 24th January until Thursday 17th March, the GWR Night Riviera sleeper service between London Paddington and Penzance will be suspended on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights. This is due to engineering work between Dawlish and Teignmouth, where a rock shelter is being built at the north end of Parsons Tunnel to protect the line from cliff falls. Piling for the work can only take place from the railway line itself due to the poor condition of the ground.
In addition, the 22.02 London Paddington to Plymouth (via Bristol) will terminate at Exeter St David's on days when the overnight closures are in place, a rail replacement bus will operate to Newton Abbot and Plymouth. Other services are not affected.
The Night Riviera will continue to operate on Friday and Sunday nights in both directions. The service does not operate on Saturday nights in either direction.
