Train running over Christmas and New Year 2008/09
As with elsewhere
on the rail network, there will be some changes to the Marston Vale Line
train services over Christmas and New Year. After all, even railway workers
need their break at Christmas, and our colleagues at Network Rail also need
to do a bit of work on the tracks when they can!
Over the next couple of weeks, the services will run as so:

Council, London Midland, Milton Keynes Council, Bedford Borough
Council, Mid Bedfordshire District Council, Bedford to Bletchley
Rail Users’ Association, the Forest of Marston Vale and the
Bedfordshire and Milton Keynes Associations of Town and Parish

rail industry and the community to encourage more people to use the
train for travel to work and leisure, and to share their views and
ideas for improving their railway.
The Partnership will be overseeing a range of projects throughout
2008.
