What we are doing

Network Rail will be carrying out additional work from 8pm on Friday 24 December (Christmas Eve) until 8am Monday 27 December to replace a number of axle counters on the tracks. The counters enable Network Rail to detect and track train carriages on the railway, making sure trains can move safely around the network.

They need to carry out this task while the trains aren’t running to allow safe access to the tracks. So you may see a number of their team present over the holiday period, however this work is not expected to be particularly disruptive or intrusive to lineside neighbours.

For any enquiries, please contact the Network Rail national helpline on 03457 11 4141
