TRAINS are running normally after a broken-down train disrupted services in Basingstoke.

The line between Reading and Basingstoke was affected due to the breakdown of a train between the stations, with disruption lasting until 9pm on Monday, July 15.

Great Western Railway (GWR) told passengers: "Owing to the breakdown of one of the trains scheduled to operate between Reading and Basingstoke there will be a reduction in the frequency of train services running between those points until a replacement can be sourced.

"Please accept our apologies for any delay to your intended journey as a result of this issue."
