Additional morning train to London for Bucks commuters
From today Chiltern Railways will be running an additional morning service from High Wycombe into London
From today (9 November), Chiltern Railways will be running an additional morning service from High Wycombe into London.
Every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday it will run - to provide more peak time seats.
It will go non-stop, departing High Wycombe at 0724 and arriving into London at 0800.
This service is specifically targeted to relieve pressure on one of Chiltern’s busiest trains, the 0643 departure from Oxford that calls at High Wycombe at 0730.
Over the last few weeks this train has been becoming increasingly busy, especially after calling at High Wycombe.
Eleni Jordan, Commercial & Customer Strategy Director at Chiltern Railways, said:
"Chiltern Railways will continue to intervene where we are able to do so to provide the best possible experience for customers returning to the railway.
"Our rigorous data collection and monitoring system has flagged the 0643 as a really crowded train, and I’m delighted that we’re able to add a new train to boost capacity during the morning peak."
This special train will run until December, when a more substantial timetable change will provide a larger boost to peak-time capacity across the Chiltern Railways network and provide even more seats for returning customers.
