Route(s) affected

Between London Marylebone and Aylesbury / Oxford / Banbury / Birmingham Moor Street / Stourbridge Junction

Description

A fault with the signalling system between South Ruislip and High Wycombe means that fewer trains are able to run. Trains running between London Marylebone and Aylesbury may be cancelled or delayed by up to 60 minutes.

Disruption is expected until 10:00.

Customer advice

Customers are advised NOT to travel.

Network Rail engineers are on site to fix the fault with the signalling system.

Trains wills need to be talked through approximately 11 miles of track, which limits Chiltern Railways to running 2 trains per hour in each direction. Trains that do run will likely be overcrowded.
