No Trains
Train passengers travelling from Howald will face significant disruptions from Monday 24 August to Friday 28 August, as no trains will depart from the station towards Rodange or Metz.
The interruption is due to summer engineering works being carried out by CFL, which will temporarily close part of the rail tracks and restrict train movement along this section of the network.
Trains on the Luxembourg-Thionville-Metz and Luxembourg-Esch-sur-Alzette-Rodange lines will still serve Howald station, but only towards Luxembourg-Gare. There will be no services in the opposite direction for the duration of the works.
CFL is taking advantage of reduced summer passenger numbers to progress with several technical upgrades to the network, limiting access for certain trains to the Howald interchange.
Travellers who need to reach Metz, Thionville, Esch-sur-Alzette, or Rodange from Howald will first need to travel to Luxembourg's main railway station by train or tram. From there, they can continue their journey on their usual rail line.
CFL advises passengers to plan for this necessary detour and apologises for any inconvenience caused by these essential works.
Five days, no trains from Howald to Metz or Rodange. You can go towards the city but not away from it. The solution is to go backwards to go forwards: take the train to Luxembourg-Gare, then switch to the one you actually wanted. CFL picked August because fewer people are travelling, which is true, but the ones who are will need to plan a detour through the central station every morning next week.
