Next Saturday 26th May 2018 There will be no trains in or out of the east end of Birmingham New Street Station. Bus replacements on the lines to International and Coventry, Sutton Coldfield and Lichfield, Walsall. Cross Country trains to/from Oxford and further south will require passengers to travel between Birmingham and Leamington Spa by Chiltern trains.
Cross Country trains to the East and North East will run via the Birmingham West Suburban Line and the Camp Hill line. This means that passenger trains will run over the following lines
Lifford Curve usually used only by ECS workings
Camp Hill Line usually only used in passenger service by XC trains to/from Bristol and South West
St Andrews Junction Landor Street Junction normally freight only
I am planning with a few friends to be on one of these trains which will mean that I have over the years travelled on every line within the Birmingham city boundary
