If you are travelling by train to Wembley / London, just to let you know that there are planned engineering works.

On Sat Hull > LKX, the 6.20, 9.20 11.20 14.06, 18.46 will be diverted via Lincoln increasing travel times by up to 2 hours and 20 minutes

On Sun LKX > Hull, the 10.43, 13.40, 14.42, 17.43, 19.45 also diverted via Lincoln increasing travel times also by 2 hours and 20 minutes.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!

just looked at first hull trains sundays are not as bad as your making out on their site only the 9 30 looks bad , hope thats the case

I'm travelling on the MegaBusPlus.

Bus down to East Midlands Parkway then train into St Pancras.

Only £23 return can't be bad.

diverted by lincoln! are they going over the humber bridge?

I'm guessing you don't travel by train very often then?

Trains will go to Newark then on to Lincoln, dependant on where the works are could mean going directly back to rejoin the line at Grantham or alternatively down to Peterborough via Spalding/Sleaford but there's no mention of missing out Grantham from the journey.

This is the latest from the National Rail website and shows that only Saturday afternoon trains until lunch timeySunday are affected.

"Diverted trains because of engineering work between Grantham and Newark Northgate

From 13:15 on Saturday 5 until 12:05 on Sunday 6 November 2011, First Hull Trains services between London Kings Cross and Hull are diverted via Lincoln. Journey times will be extended by up to 90 minutes."

nope not anymore but i've had more than my fair share of rail based misery in the past - just thought lincoln was an odd way to do it as its going back on itself a bit from newark - donny to sheffield to nottingham then grantham is the usual diversion route, though guess this route will be busy with existing services on a saturday. still better than putting everyone on a replacement bus service

16 of us on the 0650 megabus in the morning !

I'd check on the East Midlands Trains, they've had big delays today.

Info i posted came from leaflets been handed out on train on thursday night

too stress, its says up to 2 hrs 20 mins not that all trains will be delayed that much. best to check.
