Services for disabled passengers in disruption situations

  • Due to track work, we occasionally need to replace trains with buses that are not accessible.

  • If you use a wheelchair, we will arrange transport by accessible taxi for you in the following situations:

    • If the replacement bus service is unexpected and it has been possible to buy a wheelchair space on the service.
    • If you have already purchased a train ticket for a wheelchair space but the train does not have a service car.
    • If there is a failure in the train during the journey and the replacement train is not accessible.
    • If the accessible toilet of the train fails.
