A shortage of signalling staff at Liskeard signal box means trains are disrupted between Liskeard and Penzance / Looe.

Trains are currently suspended between Liskeard and Looe. Trains between Liskeard and Penzance may be cancelled or revised. We expect this to continue until approximately 10:30.

Alternative travel advice:

A limited number of minibuses will run between Liskeard and Looe in place of the suspended train service, calling at all stations. These will operate as close to train running times as possible, however, these may be slightly delayed due to extended journey times by road.

Customers travelling between Liskeard and Looe may use their ticket on Go Cornwall Bus route 73: Liskeard (Station), St Keyne (Community Centre), Sandplace (Station), Looe (Station).

Additional information:

Trains are currently disrupted as there are no staff to operate the signalling equipment. The signal box is expected to reopen from approximately 08:20.
