Avanti West Coast said on X (formerly Twitter) that all services in and out of Euston will be affected, but ‘the Manchester route will be affected more with cancellations.’
Trains through Watford and Euston will also be affected by an additional speed restriction over a defective track on that stretch.
Today’s disruption comes after trains to Euston were affected yesterday after a chemical spillage on tracks near Crewe.
