Southern and Gatwick Express routes face bus replacements and revised schedules due to engineering.
Gatwick Express and Southern routes are affected. Buses replace trains between Three Bridges and Preston Park/Lewes, and between Balcombe and Brighton. Trains go direct from London Victoria to Brighton via Horsham and Littlehampton. Expect longer travel times this way.
Trains won’t run between London Victoria and Littlehampton via Hove. Trains will run between Brighton, Eastbourne, and Hastings, using a different schedule. Thameslink has no trains running between Three Bridges and Brighton. Tickets work on direct trains via Littlehampton if going to Brighton.
Tickets are valid on Southern trains for stations between Three Bridges and Preston Park. Engineering work shuts the lines between Hastings and Ashford, causing delays to Southern trains from Eastbourne/Hastings to Ashford. Buses will replace all trains on this route. All these changes are for February 22nd and 23rd.
Sunday, February 23rd, before 9 AM, has more changes. Southern trains from London Bridge to Victoria/Caterham are impacted. Buses replace trains between London Bridge and Crystal Palace via New Cross Gate.
Trains to Caterham will go around via Selhurst, lengthening the journey. Trains between London Bridge and Victoria will change and now run between Crystal Palace and London Victoria. Remember, this is only before 9 AM on Sunday.
