2013-04-23 — /travelprnews.com/ — Virgin Trains is urging customers to make sure they have reserved seats for train travel over the May Day bank holiday weekend by booking their tickets as soon as possible. This can be done on line by visiting virgintrains.com, phoning 0871 977 4222 or calling in at any Virgin Trains station where knowledgeable travel consultants will be able to discuss and book journey requirements. Weekend First Class Upgrades along with Off Peak tickets will be available for travel throughout the three day holiday weekend together with an extensive range of Advance tickets.
Network Rail is taking the opportunity to carry out essential route improvement work on the West Coast Main Line – one of the busiest rail routes in Europe – at certain times during the holiday period while less people are travelling to work. In most cases this work is scheduled to be completed by early afternoon on the bank holiday Monday allowing returning travellers to complete journeys without interruption. Where work is taking place, in many cases alternative routes are available for train travel, although in order to ensure that all stations are served, in some cases replacement coaches, will have to be used.
For full details of train and replacement coach timings visit either nationalrail.co.uk or call 08457 48 49 50.
Here is a day by day summary of those sections of route that are closed for improvement work:-
Saturday 4 May
Sunday 5 May
Monday 6 May
