Each weeknight this week (except Friday) the last train north from Cambridge to Kings Lynn appears to be missing - the usual service leaving Cambridge at 2338 is the last one rather than the 0008.
On the engineering part of GN's website it mentions engineering work between Hitchin and Meldreth. However, the 2309 from Kings Cross, which would normally form the 0008 from Cambridge, is running normally through that area, but for no apparent reason it is then listed as terminating at Cambridge rather than continuing to Kings Lynn.
Is it really acceptable to just remove the last train of the night like this and not provide any alternative? There don't appear to be any buses planned to cover.
Edit : just spotted a twitter thread asking the same question. Answer : no bus. Really? Second answer : ok, we've ordered a bus.
Doesn't answer why the regular service isn't running though. Or why it takes someone pointing this out on Twitter rather than them working it out for themselves...
