Euston Station closed for three days over Easter
London's Euston station will be closed for three days over the Easter weekend for engineering works, Network Rail has said. No trains will run between Euston Station and Milton Keynes Central on Saturday, Sunday and Monday due to upgrades on the West Coast Main Line. Euston station will be closed on these days, and a reduced timetable will operate on Friday. Amanda Webster-Uz, Network Rail's head of Euston station operations, said there was a "significant amount of work happening" at the station and urged passengers to check their journeys in advance. While the railway to Euston is closed, Network Rail said it would make "essential improvements" to the toilet facilities and install updated signage in the station. The station will shut again over the Spring Bank Holiday weekend from 4 to 5 May, with fewer services running on 3 May. Train services in south London will also be disrupted over the Easter weekend due to a major programme of railway upgrades. A railway junction at Battersea will be rebuilt, a new signalling system in Lewisham will be installed and new track will be laid on the Bromley North branch line. Southeastern trains to and from London Victoria will be diverted to London Cannon Street, London Charing Cross or London Blackfriars from 18 to 21 April. Brixton station will also be closed. Network Rail urged passengers to plan ahead, external for the Easter period, with Thameslink, Southern and Southeastern trains all due to be affected.
