UK Trains rail disruptions & other info

Jan 7 to Jan 11
Urgent repairs cause reduced service between Brockenhurst and Lymington Pier
󱒃
Period:Wednesday, January 7 to Sunday, January 11
Operators:South Western Railway
Related Information:Urgent repairs to the railway were required between Brockenhurst and Lymington Pier. Although some of the necessary work has been completed, further work is required before a full service is able to operate on this line. Trains have been reduced to an hourly service until the repairs have been fully completed. This is expected until the end of the day on Sunday 11 January. Customer advice: Following urgent repairs to the railway, all lines have now reopened. Whilst repairs have taken place to reopen the line, further work is required to fully rectify the issue. As a result, trains will be subject to minimal delay while they run at a reduced speed along the line, and the service will be reduced to an hourly service in order to minimise disruption. If you need any help with your journey, please speak to a member of staff or use a station help point. If you would prefer to use local buses to continue your journey please check Traveline. South Western Railway tickets are not valid on local buses unless stated above.
Jan 7 to Jan 9
Heavy rain causes line closure between Liskeard and Looe, road transport replaces trains
󱒃
Period:Wednesday, January 7 to Friday, January 9
Operators:Great Western Railway
Related Information:The line between Liskeard and Looe remains closed following a period of recent heavy rain which flooded the track. The water levels have now dropped and Network Rail have inspected the bridges. The results of the investigation have confirmed damage that will require work to be performed before the line can be reopened and made safe for trains to run again. No trains will operate between Liskeard and Looe until later in the day. Customer advice: Replacement coaches will operate at train departure times from Liskeard and Looe. The designated stops for the replacement road transport are as follows: Liskeard - at the front of the station. Sandplace - bus stops by the station entrance. Looe - at the front of the station. If you are travelling to / from Coombe Junction Halt, St Keyne Wishing Well Halt or Causeland please call GWR customer services (0345 700 0125) or use the station help point for taxis to be arranged. You may use your ticket on Transport for Cornwall bus service 73 between Liskeard and Looe at no extra cost.
Jan 8 to Jan 9
Wintry weather and Storm Goretti affect rail services across England, Scotland and Wales
󱒃
Period:Thursday, January 8 to Friday, January 9
Related Information:The Met Office have issued yellow and amber weather warnings for snow, ice, rain and wind that may affect services across England, Wales and Scotland until the end of the day on Friday 9 January. Storm Goretti has been named and will bring strong winds and snow to some parts of England and Wales. Services will be impacted today, 8 January and on Friday 9 January. If you are travelling on any of the affected days you are strongly advised to check your full journey before you travel. Stay safe on the rail network in these snowy and icy conditions. Don't rush, hold the handrail on stairs and escalators, and use the lift if you've got heavy luggage, bikes or pushchairs. The forecast weather may cause trains to be disrupted: In very cold weather, snow and ice can build up on the tracks blocking points, the equipment that allows trains to move between tracks. Ice can coat the electrified third rail and overhead power cables, preventing trains from drawing the power they need to run and leaving them stranded. Icicles on tunnels, bridges and other structures can also damage trains and overhead power cables. In very snowy weather where snow lies deeper than 30cm, trains can’t run safely unless they have been fitted with snow ploughs.
