There will be no Finsbury Park trains to or from London King’s Cross, Moorgate or St Pancras International stations from Friday and over this weekend.
A reduced Thameslink and Great Northern timetable will be in place from Friday (February 26) to Sunday (February 28) to allow Network Rail to prepare for the main three-month stage of the £1.2billion East Coast Main Line upgrade starting next week.
The project will see the track layout at King’s Cross improved and a railway tunnel which has been out of use since the 1970s reopened in works between March and June.

Major work at London King’s Cross station will lead to service changes at many stations later this week. The work will mean that no trains will be running to or from London King’s Cross, Moorgate or St Pancras International via Finsbury Park between Friday and Sunday (February 26 to 28). This is part of a £1.2billion upgrade of the East Coast Maine Line, Network Rail, Thameslink and Great Northern. There will be temporary changes to the signalling at King’s Cross during the closure. The following changes to services will be in place: • Friday 26 February – Trains to and from Cambridge and Peterborough will start and end at Potters Bar, where passengers can use replacement buses to connect to alternative rail or London Underground services. Trains to and from Welwyn Garden City will start and end at New Barnet and services to and from Stevenage via Hertford North will start and end at Gordon Hill, with replacement buses running to Alexandra Palace.
