Late notice un-planned engineering work is taking place between Aylesbury and Amersham on Wednesday 08 April 2026.
As a consequence of these works, a number of timetable changes are planned, which are detailed below. These include;
Rail replacement bus services at some stations and on some routes.
On Wednesday 08 April, no train services will run between Aylesbury and London Marylebone.

Queueing Systems at London Marylebone (3 - 8 April)
Between April 4 and 8 inclusive we are expecting our services to be busier than usual. This is due to the closure of London Euston Station to long-distance trains and Chiltern Railways operating the only direct route between London and Birmingham.
At London Marylebone Station there will be a queueing system in place to support the safe operation of the railway. Please join the correct queue for your journey:
- Blue Queue: Services to Oxford via Bicester Village.
- Green Queue: Services to Birmingham Moor Street.
- Orange: Queue: All other services.
Please be patient - we have laid on additional trains and carriages across the whole period, and our teams will get you on your way as soon as they can.
At busy times we also anticipate a queuing system being implemented at Birmingham Moor Street.
- Wednesday 8th April 2026
