Description

The autumn clock change is due to take place tonight.

When you are checking your journey, if your train is shown to depart a station between 01:00 and 01:59, please expect that it will do so in the hour before the clock change.

At 01:59, the clocks will go back, and will return to 01:00, but trains which are already en route will continue without further delay, despite the new time shown on the clocks.
