Engineering work for Today

There are no changes to trains in the opposite direction, from London St Pancras International to Ramsgate via Dover Priory.
Paddock Wood line: Trains from Dover Priory to London Charing Cross will leave Dover Priory 2 minutes earlier. Off-peak trains from London Charing Cross to Dover Priory will not stop at Folkestone West.
