Overground
LONDON OVERGROUND PLANNED CLOSURES: From Saturday 20 February until Monday 31 May, buses replace trains between Gospel Oak and Stratford. This is to enable the frequent running of longer trains with increased capacity and reliability across London on time for the Olympics in 2012. These works will have a knock on effect on other Overground services during peak hours - please see further information for details. Planned weekend engineering work is also scheduled to take place on most Sundays until May 2011 between Richmond and Gospel Oak, some weekends between Gospel Oak and Barking (until May 2011) and between Clapham Junction and Willesden Junction on Sundays until May 2011. Sections of the Watford Junction to Euston line will also be regularly affected on Sundays until October 2010.
