Saturday 24th/Sunday 25th August/Monday 26th (Bank Holiday)

Forest Hill/Honor Oak Park: No service on Southern all weekend.

London Overground will operate a special service on Saturday and Bank Holiday Monday. ALL trains to West Croydon will operate every 7-8 minutes as they've been able to use the slots used by Southern as they won't be running due to engineering works at Crystal Palace. Trains to Highbury & Islington run normally.

Sunday a reduced service every 15 minutes will operate to and from West Croydon with no service to Crystal Palace.

Catford Bridge/Lower Sydenham: Normal service over the weekend with a Saturday service on Monday.

Crofton Park/Catford: Replacement buses between Herne Hill and Bromley South throughout.

A small correction to the Overground changes next weekend.

The extra trains run on Saturday to West Croydon are six trains per hour in both directions, so a slight reduction in service to every 8-15 minutes depending on the time.

Sunday AND Monday will be every 15 minutes to and from West Croydon only.

From Tuesday 27th August to Sunday 1st September, Southern services will operate between London Bridge and Crystal Palace only.

Southern aren't offering replacement buses to connect to Streatham Hill either which connect with services to Victoria either, so use alternative routes such as the 185 bus or use the Overground/Tube instead.

The October half term looks a bit tricky - but not too bad for the FH - LB run.

There's a great deal of detail here:

That is rather pathetic. Particularly the 6pm cut off. Lots of people don't even leave work until then.

Totally agree!
So we'll still have packed overground trains and platforms coming home on the Canada water interchange-
They could at least run them until 7.30pm
