Rail replacement buses have been put in place by West Midlands Railway after problems with signalling.

It’s a second blow in as many days after yesterday afternoon saw crowds returning from the Lichfield Bower facing disruption as all services were cancelled.

Word of warning to anyone travelling home from the #Lichfield Bower – all trains on the #crosscity line are currently not running. Bus services ordered but expected to be at least an hour before they're in place

West Midlands Railway say bus services will operate in place of trains between Lichfield Trent Valley and Blake Street until further notice.

Due to the signal failure, road transport has been requested to run between Blake Street and Lichfield City/Trent Valley provided by Coastaliner, South Staffs Coaches, Robinsons Coaches and Bouden Travel.
