As of 19:10 BST, National Rail says that at least eight rail operators remain affected by the disruption that has seen widespread cancellations and delays across much of England. <\/p>\n

Avanti West Coast says its trains between London Euston and Manchester Piccadilly may be delayed, cancelled or diverted. <\/p>\n

CrossCountry advised that servies can now run from Manchester, but says some services may still have “knock-on delays”.<\/p>\n

East Midlands Railway says to not travel between Sheffield and Liverpool Lime Street, adding that there remains disruption between Liverpool and Nottingham\/Norwich.<\/p>\n

London Northwestern Railway says rail replacement busses are in operation between Liverpool Lime Street and Crewe, and between Crewe and Birmingham New Street.<\/p>\n

Lumo’s 13:19 train from London Euston to Stirling is running 42 minutes late after being delayed at Preston.<\/p>\n

Northern says do not travel, as its services are unable to run on all routes in the north west and Greater Manchester.<\/p>\n

TransPennine Express also advises against travel on its services as there are cancellations on all routes.<\/p>\n

Transport for Wales says services to Manchester Picadilly – and between Liverpool Lime Street – may be cancelled or delayed. <\/p>\n

However, other major rail companies operating through and near the affected region, including LNER and West Midlands Railway, have reported good service. <\/p>\n

Tickets for many of the above operators can be used on trains run by other rail companies – these details are listed on each operator’s website. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What’s the latest across the rail network?published at 19:21 BST 19:21 BST Image source, EPA\/ShutterstockImage caption, Commuters at…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":278751,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[84,59,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-729786","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business","tag-business","tag-gb","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/729786","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=729786"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/729786\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/278751"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=729786"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=729786"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=729786"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
