Rail passengers travelling between Wrexham and Chester face disruption throughout today after a shortage of available trains led to cancellations.
Transport for Wales said services will be cancelled in both directions between Wrexham General and Chester, with disruption expected to continue until 8pm today (Tuesday, November 10).
The operator said the problem was caused by "more trains than usual needing repairs at the same time" at Chester.
TfW said the incident began at around 6.40am and means fewer trains are available to operate between the two stations.
Passengers affected by cancellations are being advised to use the next available service.
In an update, Transport for Wales said: "Due to a shortage of trains, fewer trains are able to run between Chester and Wrexham General in both directions.
"Customers are advised to travel on the next available service.
"We apologise for the disruption caused to your journey."
Passengers are advised to check their journey before travelling, with TfW warning that services elsewhere on the network and those operated by other companies could also be affected.
Customers whose train is delayed or cancelled and who arrive at their destination more than 15 minutes late may be eligible to claim compensation through TfW's Delay Repay scheme.
Passengers who decide not to travel because of the disruption can obtain a fee-free refund if their ticket has not been used.
TfW currently expects the incident to last until 8pm, with disruption between Wrexham and Chester expected throughout the day.
