Stations affected will include Kings Langley, Hemel Hempstead, Berkhamsted, Tring, Cheddington, Leighton Buzzard, Bletchley, Milton Keynes and Wolverton.
While trains are not running on the West Coast Mainline into Euston, Network Rail will also be completing significant maintenance and improvements elsewhere as part of its national railway upgrade plan.
London Midland spokesman Steve Helfet said: “The bank holiday works will play a key role in providing the infrastructure and capacity to deal with the growing popularity of rail travel.
