Not sure if this has been mentioned but there doesn't seem to be much of a service on the trains this Sunday into Charlton, which is a big pain for me as I'm supposed to be bringing 27 kids and parents! Engineering works between Dartford and Charlton through Abbey Wood apparently so no service on the Lewisham line to Charlton at all.

    The works are between Slade Green, Dartford and Gravesend. There is no problem between Slade Green and Charlton with a train every 20mins.Fom Lewisham take the DLR to Greenwich then train to Charlton

    Engineering work is taking place between Sidcup / Slade Green and Gravesend with all lines closed.

    Trains between London St Pancras International and Faversham will call additionally at Higham.

    Trains between London Charing Cross and Gillingham will not run.

    Trains between London Charing Cross and Dartford (via Greenwich) will start / terminate at Slade Green.

    Trains between London Charing Cross and Dartford (via Bexleyheath) are diverted from Barnehurst to start / terminate at Slade Green.

    Trains between London Charing Cross and Dartford / Gravesend (via Sidcup) will start / terminate at Sidcup.

    Buses replace trains between Slade Green and Gravesend, also between Sidcup and Dartford (not calling at Albany Park, passengers should use connecting bus via Sidcup).
