Past time Rail's site shows that it will run in from via Salisbury, Warminster, Westbury, Bradford on Avon, Bathampton Junction, Bath to BTM. But I'm sure that precise times and routes will be posted in due course, rather than the dreaded 'postponement for guaging issues.'

Times at Bath Spa a. 12.25 d. 16.55
Bristol Temple Meads a. 12.40 d. 16.35

Will there be some dry weather or snow rather than heavy rain?
