Hello RailUKForums.

Hopefully I am posting in the right forum.

I pre-brought a day return ticket to Stansted Airport from London Liverpool Street. This weekend buses are replacing trains with direct service from London Liverpool Street to Stansted Airport.

Does anyone know if it will be a single bus per timetabled bus replacement service or will there be more then one bus?

I sent Greater Anglia some tweets but have had no response. Having been on the service I was planning to be one last week there is no way we would have fitted onto 1 bus so looking to plan accordingly.

Thanks!

Stansted Express rail replacement for the most part of the day operates on a turn up and go set up, buses fill up so quickly that whilst in practice there is shown a bus to replace each train in reality as soon as a bus fills up it is sent on its way and this repeats every few minutes.

They have the operation down to a five art.

Don't know the frequency of the Stansted rail services but there will be one bus every 15 minutes calling at London Liverpool street only. This will be interspersed with a bus calling at Broxbourne for connecting trains to Liverpool street with 7 buses per hour heading in the London direction.
