Trains are no longer serve Cosford due to the works which began over the weekend.

The work is expected to continue until approximately March 2012.

London Midland will provide a replacement bus service between Cosford and Albrighton from Monday to Saturday.

The service will connect into and out of trains which serve Cosford station, the connection point being Albrighton station. This service will also provide cover for the Monday to Saturday late evening Arriva Trains Wales services.

The minibus will pick up/drop off passengers at Albrighton station at the top of the car park near to the platform entrance; this is weather/vehicle space permitting, if this is not possible the driver will pick up at the bottom of the station approach at the junction with the road.

For Cosford station the pick-up/drop off point will be outside the station on the road.
