Transport for London has begun accepting applications for 18+ Oyster photocards and several other cards, as it continues to restore computer systems following the cyber attack just over two months ago. Up to 5000 accounts were thought to have been affected in the attack on 1 September. TfL said it had ‘worked’ closely with the National Crime Agency and the National Cyber Security Centre and notified the Information Commissioner's Office.

The Lymington branch reopened today, after a possession lasting seven days in which 1500m of track was replaced. The rails have been treated by a road-rail Land Rover, known as a Sand Rover, which applied a sticky sand-like gel to help with adhesion. The rails have also been coated to reduce corrosion, which is a risk in the maritime atmosphere. There will be a second possession betweeh 21 December and 6 January, so that the viaduct over the Lymington River can be improved.

The East Coast Main Line will be closed between Welwyn Garden City and Hitchin on 30 November and 1 December so that further ERTMS testing can be carried out. LNER services will start or terminate at St Neots or Peterborough. Rail replacement coaches will run between St Neots and Bedford, where passengers can join Thameslink or EMR trains to London. Hull Trains will run two services, which will be diverted to London St Pancras. Lumo will terminate at Peterborough, and provide a non-stop coach from there to London King’s Cross. There will be no Grand Central services.
