TRAIN chaos is set to hit Worcester tomorrow with trains expected to be cancelled throughout the day.
Train crew shortages will mean West Midlands Railway Services which stop at Worcester Foregate Street and Worcester Shrub Hill will be impacted from 1pm tomorrow (Saturday, November 16).
Rail bosses are anticipating disruption and cancellations to services, and trains which do run will be busier than usual.
Rail replacement buses will be running from around 2pm onwards.

Rail replacement buses will operate between Foregate Street and Shrub Hill to and from Hereford, Kidderminster and Bromsgrove.
At Kidderminster and Bromsgrove, onward journeys to and from Birmingham will be available by train.
A West Midlands Railway spokesperson has apologised for any inconvenience caused.
The spokesperson added: "With the Birmingham Christmas Market now open, we expect rail replacement buses in the late evening to be busy.
"Therefore, we advise you to consider travelling earlier in the evening for a more comfortable journey where possible and not to rely on final connecting services in case these become oversubscribed."
