From 19 May 2019, services on the Coventry to Nuneaton route have been significantly upgraded by West Midlands Trains, with the single-car Class 153s replaced by 2-car units. Saturdays (which will coincide with games at the Ricoh Arena) will see three trains per hour in each direction. The line is also connected with the Coventry to Leamington Spa line, with direct trains from Nuneaton to Leamington Spa. In December 2021 West Midlands Trains once again declared their failure to run services on the line, as well as the Coventry–Leamington line, until at least the end of January 2022. This followed their failure in early 2021 to maintain a service.
