"A Voice for Durham Coast Rail Users"

Our guest speaker will be Matt Croasdale, Northern Rail’s stakeholder manager. All welcome

All weekends from 25th January through to 23rd March East Coast Main Line engineering work will result in significant curtailment and alteration to Grand Central service on the coast line. The first two weekends trains will terminate at Peterborough, whilst on 22nd/23rd March they run only to York. On all days there are fewer trains and with a much later (sometimes early afternoon) start.

Check before you travel!

Due to engineering work in connection with the East Coast digital signalling programme there are no trains running into Kings Cross this weekend.

All Grand Central trains are cancelled throughout

For anyone whose travel south is essential, LNER will be running an approximately half hourly service from Edinburgh to Peterborough, with alternate trains continuing to St. Neots. From St Neots there is a connecting bus service (taking 40 minutes) to Bedford for East Midlands Trains into St Pancras.
