Passenger Train Services over Unusual Lines
Summer 2004
This page was updated on 28 June 2007
Unless otherwise indicated, trains operated Sunday 23 May to Sunday 26 September 2004. All dates quoted are inclusive, but services and timings may be altered on public holidays.
Even though the first phase of the Channel Tunnel Rail Link did not feature on the National Rail Timetable Map, it is included in tables 350-352 and is not therefore regarded as a candidate for inclusion in PSUL.
