EMR to reinstate full Intercity weekday timetable and significantly increase Sunday Regional services

  • Full Intercity timetable to be reinstated 
  • 33 Sunday Regional services also reinstated
  • Includes reintroduction of Sunday services between Derby and Crewe

East Midlands Railway (EMR) is to significantly increase its Intercity and Regional services starting from Sunday, February 27th.

The full Intercity weekday timetable will be reinstated with an increase of eight services, while 33 Sunday Regional services will also be reintroduced - providing more leisure travel opportunities across the region. 

EMR has been able to make these changes due to the steady improvements in the number of Covid-related staff absences, and the formal resolution of the dispute with the RMT in relation to the industrial action taken over numerous Sundays affecting EMR Regional services. This is particularly significant, bringing resolution to a 13 year Senior Conductor dispute.

Paul Barnfield, Operations Director at East Midlands Railway, said: “We are pleased to be able to reintroduce services to our network from this weekend. This is a positive step in the right direction and is made possible by the continued decline in Covid-related staff absences and the resolution of industrial disputes."
