Following the collapse of Vivarail in late 2022, WMT will reintroduce a partial train service on the Marston Vale Line on 20 November 2023. Initially, four services will run in each direction Monday-Fridays and services will be focused on the morning and afternoon peaks, with rail replacement buses continuing to operate at other times. West Midlands Trains aims to operate a full service from early 2024.
