Passengers have been warned over Christmas travel disruption affecting London Euston, Paddington, Elizabeth line and the West Coast main line.

Planned works will shut down part of the Elizabeth line between Paddington and Heathrow Many of us will hop on a train next month to visit family and friends across the UK. If you are one of the millions of people planning a holiday getaway, it is worth checking if your journey is affected by engineering works. It comes after Network Rail , the organisation running Britain’s rail infrastructure, and train operators announced major engineering and improvement works at Christmas and New Year.

This will wreak havoc on the Elizabeth line, Great Western Railway and Heathrow Express services over the weekend from Friday, December 27 to Sunday, December 29. The Elizabeth line will not run to and from Paddington at all and there will be no Lizzy line between Stratford and London Liverpool Street either. GWR will not run trains in or out of Londo Paddington over the weekend, so some journeys might take longer than usual, National Rail said.
