Can anyone explain why UK train to #London from Midlands on 7 April is taking longer than usual?

Trying to book Macclesfield/Stockport to London but getting rail replacements & 5hr+ travel time (compared to 2hrs).

Thanks for any information.

A huge screw you to #AvantiWestCoast who operate Crewe Station, for embracing discrimination by re-signing the 'gents' & 'ladies' toilets to 'Male' & 'Female', expanding hostility to trans people.

They have a page on their website supporting pride. However, actions speak louder than words.
