If you are travelling to Didcot Parkway, you should travel by the 23:14 London Paddington to Oxford service which will call additionally at Didcot Parkway. A replacement bus will connect out of this train at Didcot Parkway for Swindon and Chippenham. If you are travelling from from Didcot Parkway, Swindon and Chippenham to Bath Spa and Bristol Temple Meads travel by earlier services.
