A fault on a train between Sittingbourne and Sheerness-on-Sea means that a reduced service is in operation between these stations.

This is expected until 10:00.

What's happened?

One of the two trains that runs the Sheerness line services this morning has developed a fault. Unfortunately, we are unable to source a replacement train, resulting in a reduced service on the Sheerness line.

How does this affect my journey?

This morning's peak service on the Sheerness line will be reduced to hourly (this is normally half-hourly).

What do I need to do?

Accessible buses will replace the cancelled trains.
