London [UK], December 25: UK passengers travelling home on Christmas Eve have faced travel difficulties after railway services from a major airport were disrupted because of a lack of staff.
Great Western Railway (GWR) said services between Reading and London's Gatwick Airport would be disrupted on Wednesday due to a shortage of train staff.
In a post on X, GWR said: "Due to a shortage of train crew between Reading and Gatwick Airport the line is disrupted.
"Train services to and from these stations may be subject to disruption on all routes." The Royal Automobile Club said it was expecting festive getaway trips by car to peak on Christmas Eve at 4.2 million, with regular commuter traffic "likely to be far lighter." (PA Media/dpa)
