Station Opening Date
East Midlands Parkway station is now scheduled to open on the 26th January.
I'm not sure what, if any, bus connections to the airport there will be due to the number of trains stopping there initially - approximately 100 per day. I think I read somewhere this is due to signalling issues, which once resolved, will allow an increase and a better spread of services throughout the day. |
East Midlands Parkway
Excuse my geographical ignorance, but which line is it on; that is, which two stations is it in between; and where are the trains' origins/destinations?
|
Its on the Midland Main Line. St Pancras to Nottingham and Derby, just south of where the line splits to the 2 cities.
Northbound East Midlands train will call Loughborough, East mids Pkway, Nottingham. |
East Midlands Parkway
Thanks for that.So presumably it'll be serving the market south of the airport on the Midland Main Line, as if there is a bus tranfer (how long will it take?) people from Nottingham, Leicester and Loughborough would be just as quick taking a bus directly anyway.
|
Timing of the bus transfer from EMPway to EMA will really depend on time of day - in the peak the transfer will have the M! J24 to negotiate in both directions - big queues. In the off peak, it should be 5/6 mins non-stop.
|
Anyone know when the link road from the central apron to cargo west is due to open, its been finished for months now and still no sign of it opening
|
Just to clarify, Midland Mainline lost the franchise,and the route from is now operated by East Midlands Railways.
Have just had a flight from East Midlands,which for me is a rare event as I normally use Manchester. I passed through the airport on a Sunday afternoon, and was not impressed with the place. Would hate to turn up at security when it was busy. On the return, tour of the airport by bus to to reach passport control which seemed a short walk from where the aircraft parked. On the plus side all the staff we encountered, were very pleasant and helpful. Regards Jubilee |
With Thomas Cook now transfering from Menzies to Servisair from 1st Feb 09, how will this effect there summer schedule, Monarch and bmi both operate flights for TCX, will these be handled by Servisair as well, I do doubt bmi will be!

It WAS busy - it's just that you are used to the HUGE crazy queues at MAN.;) Thanks for the clarification, but to clarify, Midland Mainline was the name of the previous franchise holder on the Midland Main Line, the current operator of services on the Midland Main Line is East Midlands Trains. The West Coast Main Line, Midland Main Line and East Coast Main Line are the 3 principle north south rail routes in the UK. |

Normally there are 2 MAH flights and then that aircraft goes of to TFS for a second time in the day, but it also looks like there is just the one TFS now, so where will the aircraft go after JSI?
