A package of major engineering work continues on the East Coast Main Line over the Spring Bank Holiday weekend (23-25 May), passengers are reminded.

Passengers across North Wales will benefit from a major increase in train services from Sunday 17 May, with services along the North Wales Coast line increasing by around 50%.

A project will begin next month at one of south London's busiest stations to improve the experience of passengers.

Successful testing at speed has been completed of upgraded digital software on a Thameslink Class 700 unit, preparing the largest passenger fleet on the East Coast Main Line (ECML) for the introduction of in-cab digital signalling.

Rail passengers in the North West are being urged to check their journeys in advance ahead of upgrade work taking place on the late May bank holiday weekend.

The majority of the railways across East Anglia will be open for this upcoming bank holiday but customers are encouraged to check before travelling and allow extra time on certain routes. 

Five more Breathing Space benches have been installed at train stations across Scotland to mark Mental Health Awareness week (11-17 May).  

Passengers are being advised about changes to weekend trains between Birmingham New Street and Coleshill Parkway in June while major HS2 work takes place in the Saltley and Washwood areas of Birmingham.
