Alterations to services at Gatwick Airport

Due to a problem with the station lighting at Gatwick Airport the line is disrupted.

Train services running through this station will be revised. Gatwick Airport will not be served. Disruption is expected until 09:00 19/12.

Customer Advice

As a result of the loss of the domestic electricity supply at Gatwick Airport railway station no train service, on any route through that station, is able to call there during the hours of darkness. Train services between Reading and Gatwick Airport will terminate at Redhill and form Gatwick Airport to Reading train services starting from Redhill. Alternative road transport will be available between Redhill and Gatwick Airport as indicated by rail staff at those stations.

Won't be fun with all those suitcases on the bus ...
