Passengers travelling with London Northwestern Railway are being reminded that timetable changes come into effect this weekend.

Jonny Wiseman, customer experience director for London Northwestern Railway, said: “Timetables are changing from this Sunday, so I urge passengers to check journey planners before travelling. Multiple routes will be subject to minor changes, with additional services made available on some lines including between Liverpool and Birmingham.”

All rail passengers are encouraged to check their journeys as new departure times will apply on many routes across the region. The changes come as part of the twice-yearly rail industry timetable change.
