<p>Die <b>Great Western Main Line</b> (<b>GWML</b>) ist eine bedeutende Eisenbahnstrecke in <a href="Vereinigtes_K%C3%B6nigreich" title="Vereinigtes Königreich">Großbritannien</a>. Sie führt vom <a href="Bahnhof_London_Paddington" title="Bahnhof London Paddington">Bahnhof London Paddington</a> in westlicher Richtung über <a href="Reading" title="Reading">Reading</a>, <a href="Swindon" title="Swindon">Swindon</a> und <a href="Bath" title="Bath">Bath</a> nach <a href="Bristol" title="Bristol">Bristol</a>. Die GWML war die einstige Hauptstrecke der 1948 verstaatlichten Gesellschaft <a href="Great_Western_Railway" title="Great Western Railway">Great Western Railway</a>. Sie wurde zwischen 1838 und 1841 erbaut.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Strecke">Strecke</h2></div>
<p>Auf der GWML verkehren fast ausschließlich Schnell- und Regionalzüge der Gesellschaft <a href="Great_Western_Railway_(2015)" title="Great Western Railway (2015)">Great Western Railway</a>. Schnellzugshaltestellen sind Slough, Reading, Didcot Parkway, Swindon, Chippenham und Bath. Zwischen London Paddington und dem <a href="Flughafen_London-Heathrow" class="mw-redirect" title="Flughafen London-Heathrow">Flughafen London-Heathrow</a> verkehren Schnellzüge von <a href="Heathrow_Express" title="Heathrow Express">Heathrow Express</a>. Vorortszüge auf dieser Verbindung werden unter der Bezeichnung <a href="Heathrow_Connect" title="Heathrow Connect">Heathrow Connect</a> angeboten. Züge von <a href="Virgin_Trains" title="Virgin Trains">Virgin Trains</a> verkehren auf der Strecke Reading – Didcot, Züge von <a href="South_West_Trains" title="South West Trains">South West Trains</a> gelegentlich zwischen Bath und Bristol.
</p><p>Die GWML wurde in den 1970er Jahren für den Verkehr ausgebaut, um die Einführung des <a href="High_Speed_Train" title="High Speed Train">High Speed Train</a> HST125 zu gestatten. Zwischen London und <a href="Wootton_Bassett" class="mw-redirect" title="Wootton Bassett">Wootton Bassett</a> (Abzweig der <a href="South_Wales_Main_Line" title="South Wales Main Line">South Wales Main Line</a>) beträgt die Höchstgeschwindigkeit auf den beiden Gleisen für den Schnellverkehr 125 mph (201 km/h), von dort bis Bristol 100 mph (161 km/h). Die Strecke ist bis zum Abzweig der South Wales Main Line seit 2020 elektrifiziert. In der Verlängerung über die South Wales Main Line reicht die Oberleitung über den <a href="Bahnhof_Bristol_Parkway" title="Bahnhof Bristol Parkway">Bahnhof Bristol Parkway</a> seit Juni 2020 bis zum <a href="Bahnhof_Cardiff_Central" title="Bahnhof Cardiff Central">Bahnhof Cardiff Central</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Zweigstrecken">Zweigstrecken</h3></div>
<p>Züge auf der GWML werden manchmal auf die <a href="Bahnstrecke_Reading%E2%80%93Plymouth" title="Bahnstrecke Reading–Plymouth">Bahnstrecke Reading–Plymouth</a> bis nach Westbury umgeleitet. Ab dort verkehren sie weiter auf der Wessex Main Line nach <a href="Swindon" title="Swindon">Swindon</a>, <a href="Bath" title="Bath">Bath</a> oder <a href="Bristol" title="Bristol">Bristol</a>. Über Bristol hinaus verkehren einige Züge auf der Bristol–Taunton Line bis <a href="Weston-super-Mare" title="Weston-super-Mare">Weston-super-Mare</a> oder weiter.
</p><p>Der Jahresbericht 2007 von <a href="Network_Rail" title="Network Rail">Network Rail</a> rechnet folgende Strecken ebenfalls zur Great Western Main Line:
</p>
<ul><li>von <a href="Didcot" title="Didcot">Didcot</a> nach <a href="Oxford" title="Oxford">Oxford</a> und <a href="Worcester" title="Worcester">Worcester</a> über die Cherwell Valley Line und die Cotswold Line</li>

<li>alle Zweigstrecken</li></ul>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Geschichte">Geschichte</h2></div>
<p>Die GWML wurde unter der Leitung des bekannten Ingenieurs <a href="Isambard_Kingdom_Brunel" title="Isambard Kingdom Brunel">Isambard Kingdom Brunel</a> gebaut. Er traf zwei kontroverse Entscheidungen: Da er glaubte, dass eine breitere Spurweite die Laufeigenschaften bei hohen Geschwindigkeiten verbessern würde, wählte er nicht die damals bereits übliche <a href="Normalspur" title="Normalspur">Normalspur</a> von 4 Fuß 8½ Zoll (1435 mm), sondern eine Spurweite von 7 Fuß (2140 mm). Außerdem entschied er sich, die Strecke auf einer direkten Route durch das Tal der <a href="Themse" title="Themse">Themse</a> zu führen, obwohl es damals in dieser Gegend keine nennenswerten Städte gab.
</p><p>Der erste Abschnitt der GWML zwischen London und <a href="Taplow" title="Taplow">Taplow</a> wurde 1838 eröffnet, drei Jahre später folgte nach dem Durchstich des <a href="Box_Tunnel" title="Box Tunnel">Box Tunnel</a> der Abschnitt bis nach Bristol. Die Great Western Railway konnte sich mit ihrer <a href="Breitspur" class="mw-redirect" title="Breitspur">Breitspur</a> nicht durchsetzen und 1892 wurde der letzte Abschnitt auf Normalspur umgebaut. In den 1930er Jahren verkehrte mit dem <a href="Cheltenham_Spa_Express" title="Cheltenham Spa Express">Cheltenham Spa Express</a> der zeitweise weltweit schnellste fahrplanmäßige dampfbespannte Zug über die Strecke.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Nach der Verstaatlichung ging die Strecke 1948 in den Besitz von <a href="British_Rail" title="British Rail">British Rail</a> über. Seit der Privatisierung von British Rail Mitte der 1990er Jahre wird die Strecke hauptsächlich von Zügen der Gesellschaft <a href="First_Great_Western" class="mw-redirect" title="First Great Western">First Great Western</a> befahren.
</p><p>Seit November 2022 wird der Abschnitt Maidenhead–Paddington auch von <a href="Crossrail" class="mw-redirect" title="Crossrail">Crossrail</a> befahren, welche via Tunnelstrecke eine Eisenbahnverbindung zur <a href="Great_Eastern_Main_Line" title="Great Eastern Main Line">Great Eastern Main Line</a> herstellt.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Eine Elektrifizierung der Great Western Main Line wurde lange geplant und gebaut. Ende 2017 wurde die seit 2010 bis zum Abzweig zum Flughafen Heathrow reichende Oberleitung über Maidenhead und Reading bis Didcot Parkway verlängert. Eine ursprünglich für 2016 bzw. 2017 geplante Elektrifizierung der Gesamtstrecke bis Bristol und der anschließenden <a href="South_Wales_Main_Line" title="South Wales Main Line">South Wales Main Line</a> über Cardiff und Swansea wurde nach Verzögerungen von der Regierung aufgrund von erheblichen Kostensteigerungen auf unbestimmte Zeit verschoben. Dennoch erfolgte die Verlängerung der Oberleitung über die South Wales Main Line nach Bristol Parkway und weiter bis nach Cardiff Central. Eine ursprünglich geplante Elektrifizierung von <a href="Cardiff" title="Cardiff">Cardiff</a> nach <a href="Swansea" title="Swansea">Swansea</a> wurde auf unbekannte Zeit verschoben, nachdem die Kosten von 900 Millionen Pfund auf 2,8 Milliarden Pfund gestiegen waren.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Im Juni 2020 wurde der elektrische Betrieb zwischen <a href="Bahnhof_London_Paddington" title="Bahnhof London Paddington">London Paddington</a> und Cardiff Central aufgenommen.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Auf der restlichen Strecke der GWML vom Abzweig der South Wales Main Line bis nach <a href="Bahnhof_Bristol_Temple_Meads" title="Bahnhof Bristol Temple Meads">Bristol Temple Meads</a> sowie den Zweigstrecken (z. B. nach <a href="Oxford" title="Oxford">Oxford</a>) wird im Dieselbetrieb gefahren, teils mit Elektro-Diesel-Hybridtriebzügen der Class 800 und seit 2018 Class 802. Ausnahme ist die Zweigstrecke
<a href="Bahnstrecke_Reading%E2%80%93Plymouth" title="Bahnstrecke Reading–Plymouth">Reading–Plymouth</a>, die bis <a href="Newbury" class="mw-disambig" title="Newbury">Newbury</a> elektrifiziert wurde.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Die Strecke ist auf einem Teilabschnitt von Paddington zum Flughafen London-Heathrow seit 2020 als eine der ersten in Großbritannien mit <a href="ETCS_Level_2" class="mw-redirect" title="ETCS Level 2">ETCS Level 2</a> ausgerüstet.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Dabei ist eine Modernisierung des bestehenden Lichtsignalsystems vorgesehen, das anschließend von ETCS überlagert wird.
