Weekend Engineering Works Reminder - 21st & 22nd, 28th & 29th June

We appreciate that closing part of the line isn’t ideal, but by having the line closed through Bedlington does allow our construction teams to make significant progress on building the new platforms for the station.  A lot of the platform construction works have to be done at a time when no trains are running due to their proximity to the railway line and that means the works either have to take place overnight or during line closures.

This time though, the line won’t be fully closed, as Northern will be running an hourly service between Newsham, Seaton Delaval and Newcastle (most trains also call at Manors with the exception of Sundays). 

A bus replacement service will run between Ashington and Newsham to connect with trains to/from Newcastle.

The line will have a revised service on Saturday 21st June, Sunday 22nd June, Saturday 28th June & Sunday 29th June.

The revised train and replacement bus timetables are available in Northern’s journey planners and ticket machines - Northern | Buy Cheap Train Tickets Online | Rail Fares

As well as the station car parks at Newsham and Seaton Delaval, we've also arranged that rail customers can use parking at Blyth Town FC on Sandringham Drive in Blyth.
