Network Rail will be carrying out major engineering works this April. No Avanti West Coast services will run to or from London Euston from Friday 3rd to Wednesday 8th April during this improvement work. During this period, other parts of the West Coast Main Line will also be affected in the North West and Scotland. 

 

Infrastructure renewals, a major bridge replacement and signalling upgrades will help provide a safer and more reliable journeys. 

 

Following the successful use of the Settle and Carlisle diversionary route in January, we are again operating a shuttle service along this route.

If you need to travel during the Easter weekend, please plan ahead and make a reservation, as your journey will take much longer. Services on Maundy Thursday (2 April) are also expected to be busy. Find out more here. 

Later in April, further works will be taking place between Preston and Edinburgh / Glasgow Central between Saturday 11 and Sunday 19 April. Avanti West Coast services between London Euston and Glasgow Central / Edinburgh will be affected. Find out more. 

We strongly advice that you plan ahead, and check before you travel.
