On the following weekends, there will be no trains to, or from London Euston whilst Network Rail carries out vital improvement work at Wembley as part of Britain’s Railway Upgrade Plan.  This will also have an impact on other West Coast main line services across the route.

  • 18-19 August
  • 25-27 August
  • 1-2 September

During these weekends, our services will terminate at either Milton Keynes or Rugby and we strongly advise customers not to travel with us to or from Euston on these dates.

We realise this will be an inconvenience, but we are working closely with industry colleagues to communicate these closures with people as soon as possible. 

 

For those passengers who need to complete their journey with us, we will have ticket acceptance in place with other routes and a rail replacement service between Rugby and Kettering to connect into East Midlands Trains services. More information can be found at nationalrail.co.uk/westcoast or virgintrains.co.uk/spanner.

 

For those able to travel the day before, off peak tickets will be available after midday on the Friday.
