Train operators affected

Route(s) affected

Between Birmingham New Street / Coventry / Rugby / Northampton / Milton Keynes Central and London Euston

Description

A speed restriction over defective track between Northampton and Milton Keynes Central means trains have to run at reduced speed on the line towards London Euston. As a result, trains running through these stations have been reduced to an hourly service.

Disruption is expected until the end of the day.

Customer Advice:

London Northwestern Railway have ordered rail replacement transport to supplement the train services during the peak.

Network Rail are planning the rectification of the track defect but disruption is expected to last all day.
