Service update

There is currently no step-free access to platforms 1 - 4 at Luton station. Passengers requiring step-free access travelling to Luton / London will need to arrange alternative transport from Bedford. If you need support arranging alternative transport, please contact the Customer Service Controller on 0345 7125678.

The lifts are out of order between platforms 5, 6, and the footbridge at East Croydon station. Step free access is still available to the platforms via the ramp to the Main Entrance.

This Thameslink replacement service will be a bus, coach or mini coach. When we provide rail replacement buses or coaches for planned disruption, we use accessible vehicles. If this is not possible, our Assisted Travel and frontline teams will always identify an alternative plan for you to complete your journey. If you need assistance or to discuss your journey requirements, please contact our Assisted Travel Team: 0800 058 2844 or 0800 138 1018 (Textphone)
