Rail disruption between Newcastle and York for three more weekends - everything you need to know

North East passengers are set for more rail disruption for the next three weekends.

Only one train an hour will travel south of Newcastle Central Station as far down as York on this weekend coming (January 28 and 29) and the subsequent two (February 4 and 5, and 11 and 12) due to engineering works on the East Coast mainline, with other scheduled services replaced by rail replacement buses. The works have been ongoing since January 14 as part of a £6 million upgrade to Durham station.

There will also be disruption on Wednesday February 1 and Friday 3 as members of the Aslef Union go on strike. However, the disruption on the upcoming weekends is not related to industrial action by the RMT or Aslef.
