00:15 Sunday 21st of April there will be no Thameslink service between Finsbury
00:19 Park and St Pancras International or between both St Pancras International

00:43 on Saturday 27th of April TfL will be carrying out essential maintenance on
00:48 its Oyster card systems. During this time customers won't be able to access any
00:52 online Oyster services and the Oyster call centre will also be temporarily
00:57 closed. As many Londoners will know there is ongoing disruption on the
01:02 Central line. If you're planning to head to Notting Hill for the day or anywhere
01:06 else along London's Red Line be aware services could be slow. TfL has
01:11 apologised for the continuous disruption on the Central line. On Sunday April the
