Can I ask to those that know, are there engineering works every weekend or have I just been unfortunate on 3 ocassions?
The second time this happened I emailed the airport and they said you'd need to contact the railway company.
This used to happen at Stansted years ago, so much so I just never bother using STN. SEN can be a pleasant change to LHR & LGW...and often at very competitive prices.
The engineering work will finally finish on the weekend of March 21/22, although there will be one further weekend of final closure on April 18-19 for drainage purposes. Thank goodness for that.
