GWR have given up on the two Cotswold lines this Sunday - North (Oxford-Worcester) and South (Swindon-Gloucester).
https://www.gwr.com/strike
My memory may be playing up but I haven't known this in 20+ years of living on the (North) Cotswold Line: no infrastructure problems, no strike, the TOC just deciding not to run a service because it's allocated its staff elsewhere.
What gives?

That means no trains all day from a bunch of significant stations (Stroud, Evesham, Pershore, Kemble, Moreton-in-Marsh, Charlbury, Hanborough etc.) and no London service from several cities (Worcester, Gloucester, Hereford, and albeit not a city, Cheltenham).Sunday 31 July
Trains will continue to be disrupted. Please make alternative travel arrangements and only travel if absolutely necessary.
There will be no service on the following routes:
- Swindon to Gloucester
- Oxford to Worcester/Hereford
