TRAIN passengers have been urged not to travel to and from London along the West Coast mainline (WCML) this weekend and next.
Euston station in the capital will be closed August 25 to 27 and September 1 to 2, as Network Rail undertakes work to replace North Wembley junction – a major intersection on Europe’s busiest mixed-use railway.
The line links Winsford and Hartford stations to London.
Peter Broadley, executive director for customer, operations and safety at Virgin Trains on the west coast, said: “With no services into or out of Euston we strongly advise our customers to avoid travelling to London on the days affected.
“We know this will impact on people’s travel plans, particularly over a bank holiday weekend so we encourage customers to plan ahead and where possible travel at other times.”
