Engineering Works - 19th/20th & 26th/27th September

On the weekends of the 19th/20th and 26th/27th September, train services on the Northumberland Line will be suspended due to engineering works.

A rail replacement bus service will run between Ashington and Northumberland Park (via all stations), with customers then changing onto the Tyne & Wear Metro for journeys into Newcastle City Centre. Rail tickets for the Northumberland Line will be valid on the Tyne & Wear Metro for journeys made on these days.

A special timetable will be in operation and journeys will take longer.

There are also engineering works taking place on the 3rd/4th October, but these will not impact on Northumberland Line services.

We can only apologise for the disruption to your journeys on these two weekends and information on rail replacement bus times can be found on www.northernrailway.co.uk
