Rail passengers are being advised to travel earlier to avoid disruption over the Christmas period, with more than 200 sets of engineering works planned.
Routes across London, Kent, East Sussex, Lancashire, Essex and Glasgow are among the lines to be shut.
Network Rail, which controls the UK's railways, says 95% of the network will be unaffected and it is the least disruptive time to do this work.
Bus replacements are planned but journey times are likely to increase.
London Paddington will be closed for four days between Christmas Eve and 27 December with Great Western Railway advising passengers to travel by 23 December "at the latest".
Between 23 December and 1 January, there will be no Greater Anglia trains between London Liverpool Street and Ingatestone or Billericay.
Elsewhere, buses will replace trains between Preston and Lancaster from Christmas Eve until 27 December.

Hopefully so shall members of trade.

Many people going to the airport don’t check the train times and just assume.

Good news for us.

I think I will indeed have Good Christmas, my firm's covering Hammersmith-Wimbledon as the District Line is closed from close of traffic on Christmas Eve to 30th December. :)

Then throughout Feb and March we've got Newbury Park-Shenfield as the Great Eastern line is closed at weekends for the Crossrail upgrade work.
