Please be advised, there is currently a very large fire near the railway between London Marylebone and Harrow-On-The-Hill.
The impact of this is that there are no Chiltern Railways services able to run between Marylebone and Amersham.
We are currently running an hourly service from Marylebone to Aylesbury (via High Wycombe) and avoiding the fire. We are also running an hourly shuttle between Aylesbury and Amersham.
