During the festive period, there will be changes to Merseyrail timetables, with some services finishing earlier than usual and some services not running.
In the past, Merseyrail has run late-night trains in the run-up to Christmas and services on Boxing Day. Due to the impact of COVID-19, these services will not operate this year. There are no planned engineering works for the rest of the year. For information on future planned works in 2021 click here.
