North East Train Operator Issues Travel Advice for People Travelling over New Year
Northern warns of earlier last trains on New Year’s Eve, later starts on New Year’s Day, and January upgrades causing diversions or rail replacement buses.
- On Thursday Northern urged passengers to 'check before they travel' for journeys over New Year and the first week of January, with updated timetable advice on Northern's website.
- Engineering activity across the Northern network is the reason for timetable changes, with upgrade works throughout January causing diversions and bus replacements, notably on the Leeds to York line via Micklefield as part of the Transpennine Route Upgrade.
- Changes include specific late-evening replacement buses around Manchester, limited North East services with Newcastle–Carlisle trains running 07:26–20:53, and a Whitby limited-stop service with two fast trains each way.
- Matt Rice at Northern emphasised customers should check before travelling as Network Rail will carry out improvement works, affecting Northern's 2,650 services a day to more than 500 stations.
- Continued work through January means passengers should monitor updates on Northern's service updates page and sign up to the Traffic and Travel newsletter for the latest engineering information.
