LNER advice for customers during February engineering works
In a bid to ease anticipated disruptions due to rail engineering works, a video has been put out by LNER – in partnership with East Midlands Railway – explaining to travellers how to make the most of planned rail replacement services that will be in use between Peterborough and Bedford.
RECOMMENDED READING:
The upcoming engineering work will be take place tomorrow (February 15) and next weekend – February 21 and February 22 – with no direct access from London King’s Cross to Peterborough on these dates.
This change will result in very busy EMR services to and from London St Pancras – often with standing room only, and queuing systems in place.
The video highlights an alternative route using rail replacement services – connecting customers between Peterborough and Bedford for onward train services to and from East Coast Main Line stations such as York.
Customers who have purchased tickets for EMR or CrossCountry services via Sheffield or Nottingham on these dates can use LNER services. There is no need to change or buy new tickets.
