Travel chaos LIVE: Major disruption after two people hit by trains
There are severe delays at Euston station this afternoon, with trains to Milton Keynes, Manchester and Birmingham disrupted.
www.express.co.ukHere’s the latest I can share based on recent reports.
- London Euston has recently reopened to full services after major track renewals and improvements in the Willesden and Primrose Hill areas, with Network Rail confirming a successful Bank Holiday upgrade and a plan to continue upgrades over the coming years. This marks a sustained effort to reduce future disruption on the West Coast Main Line.[2]
- Earlier, there were ongoing concerns about safety and the station’s condition, with government and Network Rail discussing a rapid improvement plan and larger-scale upgrade to create a brand-new concourse, though those discussions date back to late 2024. While progress has been made, officials have continued to emphasize safety and modernization in the broader Euston upgrade program.[1]
