Avanti West Coast has sent RailAdvent details of its new timetable that will come into effect from Monday.

Following the Stay at Home guidelines, Avanti West Coast services will be reduced from six trains per hour to four trains per hour.

This means that one service on the Birmingham route and Manchester route will be removed from the timetable.

Unlike last year’s lockdown, Avanti West Coast will continue to operate train services to Edinburgh, Shrewsbury, Wrexham and Blackpool.

Additional stops will be added into the other services to mean that stations will continue to be served by an Avanti West Coast service.

The only station not to be served by Avanti West Coast will be Wilmslow.

One train per hour will run on the Birmingham route to Wolverhampton, and will call at Watford Junction, Milton Keynes Central, Rugby, Coventry, Birmingham International, Birmingham New Street and Sandwell & Dudley.

Some services will extend to Edinburgh and Blackpool, calling at stations north of Wolverhampton.

One train every two hours will operate between London Euston and Edinburgh Waverley via Birmingham.

London Euston to Glasgow Central trains will operate a one train per hour and will call at Crewe, Wigan North Western, Warrington Bank Quay, Preston, Lancaster, Oxenholme Lake District, Penrith and Carlisle.

Avanti West Coast’s Manchester route will have one train per hour, and will call at Milton Keynes Central, Stoke-on-Trent, Macclesfield, and Stockport.

Meanwhile, the Liverpool route will have one train an hour between Liverpool Lime Street and London Euston, with trains calling at Stafford, Crewe and Runcorn.

Heading to North Wales? One train a day will operate between Holyhead and London Euston, calling at Milton Keynes Central, Crewe, Chester, Flint, Prestatyn, Rhyl, Colwyn Bay, Llandudno Junction and Bangor.

A shuttle service will operate between Holyhead and Crewe.

An occasional service is set to operate on the Blackpool and Shrewsbury / Wrexham routes.

Remember to follow all government guidelines in the area you are travelling to.
