Christmas Eve rail strike timetable confirmed

Chiltern Railways has reminded passengers that they should only travel by train on Christmas Eve if absolutely necessary due to strikes planned for that day.

Industrial action to be taken by the Rail Maritime and Transport (RMT) Union on the 24th December in a dispute over pay and working hours, means a very limited service will operate throughout the day with only four trains running per hour.

The services running are as follows:

  • Marylebone to stations to Oxford Parkway (via Bicester Village, and vice-versa)
  • Marylebone to stations to Aylesbury (via High Wycombe, and vice-versa)
  • Marylebone to stations to Banbury (and vice-versa)
  • Aylesbury Vale Parkway to stations to Amersham (and vice-versa)

In Bucks, trains will run between Aylesbury and Marylebone via High Wycombe, and from Aylesbury Parkway to Amersham with the last train from London to Aylesbury departing at 16:55.

The last trains leave at these times:

Last Trains (Southbound):

  • 14.40 Aylesbury Vale Parkway - Amersham
  • 16.00 Aylesbury - Marylebone (via High Wycombe)
  • 16.04 Banbury - Marylebone
  • 16.30 Oxford Parkway - Marylebone
  • 16.44 Bicester Village - Marylebone

Last Trains (Northbound):

  • 15.10 Marylebone - Banbury
  • 15.33 Amersham - Aylesbury Vale Parkway
  • 16.05 Marylebone - Oxford Parkway (via Bicester Village)
  • 16.55 Marylebone - Aylesbury (via High Wycombe)

Trains will not be running on Christmas Day or Boxing Day and it could be as late as midday on December 27 before services resume.
