East Midlands Railway Strikes & Delays | Nottingham News

East Midlands Railway is bracing for major travel chaos with two strike days coming up—August 8th and 15th—when RMT members will walk out, slashing train services on key routes. Expect severely reduced schedules: only one train per hour between Nottingham/London, Sheffield/London, and Corby/London, running from 7 AM to 7 PM. Regional services may hold, but engineering work on August 8th–9th will disrupt the Liverpool to Norwich line, skipping stations like Ilkeston and Alfreton, and cutting trains in Sheffield. Plus, “action short of a strike” could bring last-minute cancellations before and after the main strikes. Travel only if essential—and always check your full journey, including first/last train times, and allow extra buffer.
