To allow for electrification and Crossrail works Paddington Station will be closed over Christmas.
There will be a six-day closure, starting on Christmas Eve, Saturday December 24 through to Thursday 29 December.
Trains are likely to be very busy on Friday 23 December, and it is recommended that customers book ahead and travel early if they can.
Trains will start and finish at Ealing Broadway throughout the closure with customers completing their journey by London Underground. There are no lifts at the station and it is recommended that customers who find using Ealing Broadway difficult, to change trains at Reading and travel to and from London Waterloo. South West Trains have agreed to accept GWR tickets to support this.
Full details are available here including details on travelling with bikes, sleeper services and Pullman dining service.
