Localised Changes To Southern Trains - Check Before You Travel

Changes to timetables from Sunday, September 4 will mean more services on some Southern routes, with some overlapping services reduced.

GTR (Govia Thameslink Railway) says the new Autumn timetable will add 45 weekday train services.

They said there will be no changes for most of the network, however nine routes in South London and the Brighton area, will see increased frequencies or additional stops.

To achieve this, there are reductions on six overlapping routes that have alternative options, mainly to off-peak or Sunday schedules when customer demand is at its lowest.

There are no changes to Gatwick Express timetables. 

It is important that passengers check their journeys at www.nationalrail.co.uk for travel on or after Sunday 4 September. 

Southern’s Customer Services Director Chris Fowler said:

“We’re pleased to be offering more services overall. Although most changes are small, it’s important that customers check their route for new times before they travel. The new timetables are available on the Southern website and journey planners have been updated. 

“Of course, we’ll continue to monitor travel patterns and customer feedback, and to work with local stakeholders as we always do when timetables are introduced, so we can look to add more services in future when and where they’re needed.”

The changes, supplied by GTR, are as follows:
