Easter Weekend Rail Services Disrupted Across Ireland, UK

Rail passengers in the UK and Ireland are being urged to check revised timetables and plan ahead due to widespread schedule changes and engineering works over the Easter weekend. In Britain, more than 300 engineering projects will disrupt services, with major stations like London Euston and London Victoria particularly affected by closures and altered routes, and replacement buses deployed in some areas. In Ireland, Iarnród Éireann has announced that all routes will operate under a revised timetable from Good Friday to Easter Monday, with significant works impacting services north of Dublin, including the Northside Dart, Northern Commuter, and Belfast Enterprise lines. Passengers are strongly advised to verify travel times and book tickets in advance, as some services may be replaced by buses or run only partially. These disruptions are part of essential maintenance and infrastructure improvements scheduled during the holiday period when passenger numbers are typically lower. Both Network Rail and Irish Rail emphasize the importance of checking updated schedules to avoid travel complications.
