Dozens of trees down
The first named storm of the 2023-4 season, Storm Antoni, led to dozens of trees being felled across Devon and Cornwall on Saturday.
GWR is advising passengers not to travel between Exeter and Penzance as they clear away the damage.
Cancellations and delays of more than two hours can be expected.
A new provisional record for gusts in August is being claimed at Berry Head, Torquay, where gusts reached 78 miles an hour.
Wind speeds of 54 miles and hour were recorded in Plymouth, and 45 miles an hour in Exeter. Plymouth Pride was scaled back because of the conditions, and Devon County Council received multiple reports of trees blocking roads.
Separately, Devon and Cornwall Police said two people were seriously injured in a crash near Oxenpark Lane, Ilfracombe on Saturday morning. One person had to be cut out of their vehicle.
