Great Western Railway said there will either be no trains or an “extremely limited service” from London Paddington to Bristol, South Wales, Gloucestershire, Somerset, Devon and Cornwall.
A GWR spokesman said: “There is going to be an impact on services today and probably into the rest of this week but we don’t know the level of disruption yet.”
He said 12 of GWR’s 93 Hitachi trains were back in service after passing safety checks.
Customers experienced lengthy waits and cancellations at the weekend following the discovery of hairline cracks on Saturday morning.
