All Virgin Trains services from the Midlands and the North will start and terminate at either Birmingham International or Coventry. There will be 3 trains per hour,  one each to/from Manchester; Liverpool and Glasgow / Preston.

There will be NO shuttle train service between Northampton and Euston and no coaches will operate between Birmingham International and Northampton. 

Because of engineering work between London Euston and Northampton - customers are advised that it may be quicker and/or more convenient to use services to/from other London terminals to complete their journey. A map of the possible alternative routes available can be found here, with full journey details available by using the Online Journey Planner.

Suggested alternative routes are as follows: 
- Customers travelling to/from Scotland via North East England should consider using National Express East Coast services to/from London Kings Cross.
- Customers travelling to/from Scotland via North West England should consider travelling to Manchester Piccadilly, and then using First TransPennine Express services to/from Sheffield (for East Midlands Trains services to London St Pancras), or Doncaster (for National Express East Coast services to/from London Kings Cross). However, customers travelling to/from Doncaster should be aware of engineering work taking place between Sheffield and Meadowhall, with replacement bus services in operation.
- Customers travelling to/from North Wales and the Midlands should consider travelling to Birmingham and then using Chiltern Railways services between Birmingham Snow Hill and London Marylebone.
- Customers travelling between London Euston and Watford should consider using London Overground services.

Please be aware that on Tuesday 25 March whilst the route to/from London Euston is open, Virgin Trains services will operate a reduced level of service of only 5/6 trains per hour in each direction and these services due to diversions in the East Midlands area will have increased journey times
