Just for information for those who are coming to UK for Xmas or to let their families know, there will be disruption due to engineering works, lack of transport due to the holidays and also Heathrow and Gatwick.

Your welcome Rocking, it's a bit like the song "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas"

No explanation given at any of stations. Very mild there so definitely not snow or leaves on the line
