Castlethorpe Work Will Delay Expresses.

The renewal of the drains at the water troughs at Castlethorpe is one of the important engineering works that is likely to delay express trains between Euston and Wolverhampton during the rest of the year.
Announcing this, British Railways state that every endeavour will be made to minimize delays occasioned by the speed restrictions which have to be imposed at the places where these works are in progress.
The works at Castlethorpe is being carried out in three stages, the last of which is scheduled for completion in April next year.
