Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 July - Engineering work affecting the route via Amersham

Due to engineering work affecting the London Underground Metropolitan Line, no Chiltern Railways will run on the Marylebone / Aylesbury Vale Parkway route (via Amersham).

Buses will replace trains between Aylesbury Vale Parkway and Beaconsfield (via Amersham). There will be no London Underground Metropolitan Line services running all weekend.

Customers travelling between Aylesbury and London Marylebone are advised to travel on the hourly direct services, via High Wycombe.

2025 Formula 1 British Grand Prix - Silverstone (Thursday 3 - Sunday 6 July)

The 2025 Formula 1 British Grand Prix takes place this weekend at Silverstone. Silverstone is located on the Buckinghamshire / Northamptonshire border, not far from some of our stations. We do therefore expect additional customers to be travelling with us from Thursday 3 July through to Sunday 6 July.

There will be shuttle buses running over all four days between Banbury and Silverstone and between Oxford Parkway and Silverstone. Anyone wishing to use these shuttle buses must pre-book them through the Silverstone website.

If you intend to catch a train after returning from Silverstone, please make sure that you have checked your journey times carefully.
