Three Overground Lines Suspended This Weekend as Bonfire Night Celebrations Extend Across London

Transport for London has announced sweeping rail disruptions for the weekend of 7–8 November 2026. Three Overground lines face suspension: the Mildmay Line (Willesden Junction to Clapham Junction, both days), the Suffragette Line (South Tottenham to Barking Riverside, both days), and the Windrush Line (Surrey Quays to Clapham Junction and Battersea Park, Sunday only). On the Underground, Burnt Oak station on the Northern Line is closed all weekend; westbound Piccadilly and District Line trains skip Barons Court; and Elizabeth Line stations at Acton Main Line and Hanwell close from 11pm Saturday through Monday 9 November. The Waterloo and City Line follows its regular weekend shutdown. The disruptions coincide with extended Guy Fawkes celebrations, with major displays taking place across the city throughout 6–8 November, making it worth checking your route carefully before heading out.
