Midland Main Line Reopens After Collision

Passenger trains are set to return to the Midland Main Line this Monday, June 29th, after a major recovery effort following a deadly collision near Bedford on June 19th. Engineers tackled complex repairs — lifting derailed carriages, restoring tracks, signals, and power lines — all while honoring the human impact, including sending support to driver Shaun Burton and others affected. Travelers should note weekend services remain suspended for planned engineering work, with rail replacement buses still active. Rail operators urge checking journey details before Monday, as adjustments may still occur. Plus, extreme heat warnings mean travelers should only go if absolutely necessary, and be prepared with water and extra time. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
