Customer Advice:
Due to a fault on a train between Barton-on-Humber and Cleethorpes, East Midlands Railway cannot currently run trains on this route as all services are ran by the same unit. Staff are now attempting to source buses to replace these services until East Midlands Railway can get a new train unit over to Cleethorpes from Nottingham to resume the train service.
Staff are working hard to make a new unit available and run it over to Cleethorpes however they do not yet have an estimate as to when this will be.
How does this affect my train?
Trains running through the area in both directions cannot run between Barton-on-Humber and Cleethorpes. Buses will run instead.
