BAKERLOO LINE: Saturday 30 and Sunday 31 May, no service between Queens Park and Harrow & Wealdstone. There will also be no LIONESS LINE service between Euston and Watford Junction. A very limited SOUTHERN service will continue to serve Wembley Central early and late on Saturday and on Sunday, and LONDON NORTH WESTERN RAILWAY trains stop at Harrow & Wealdstone. If travelling to Wembley for the Rugby League Challenge Cup Finals on Saturday or the Women's FA Cup Final on Sunday. Special bus service 718 operates
For safety reasons, Wembley Stadium Station will be closed during the following event days:
- Rugby Challenge Cup – 30 May
- Women’s FA Cup Final – 31 May
Why are we doing this:
Engineering works between London Euston and Birmingham New Street means we need to increase the frequency and length of our trains between London Marylebone and Birmingham Moor Street on the above dates. As a result of this, our capacity is limited to serve Wembley Stadium Station for the events.
For safety reasons, Wembley Stadium Station will be closed on the above dates. Those travelling via public transport to or from Wembley Stadium should travel via Wembley Park underground station, or relevant bus routes.
As usual buses will be on diversion

Really great planning (not) by Wembley Stadium, Brent Council and TFL!
Wembley Stadium is supposed to be our show piece national stadium and a public transport destination!
Do the highly paid powers that be not understand the impact that these closures will have on supporters who have paid a lot of money to attend these prestigious sporting events with many travelling from up north to get to London. This has a huge impact on local people who just need to get anywhere by train over the weekend as Wembley Park Station will be swamped.
Totally agree with above comments.
No announcement at Wembley Stadium regarding this closure.
At 68, had to run to Wembley Park, quite a distance to travel back central in order to make an appointment.
Brent Council and TFL clueless !!
