South Western Railway is again operating a special timetable today, Monday 14 September 2026, following ongoing disruption linked to the Overton line. Barnes station sits on the South Western Railway network, so commuters and anyone travelling into central London or out towards Richmond and beyond should allow extra time or check their journey before leaving home.
The special service is in place from the early hours, and alterations to stopping patterns, frequencies or timings may affect your usual train. National Rail's dedicated disruption page has the most up-to-date information on which services are running and where replacement arrangements may apply. Check the latest service information on the National Rail disruption page.
TfL's status page also carries live updates for South Western Railway services. View TfL's current status board.
If your regular train is cancelled or significantly retimed, alternative options from Barnes include the District line at Gunnersbury or Kew Gardens, and bus routes 209 and 419. It is worth checking both National Rail and TfL live maps before setting off, particularly during the morning peak.
