Travel advice on an ASLEF strike day
No trains will operate
Travel advice on an RMT strike day
The National advice is to only travel if absolutely necessary and expect severe disruption.
The railway will operate limited opening hours with services starting later than normal and finishing in the late afternoon. Some stations will not be served on strike days. Please check your first and last trains carefully, as there will be no alternative travel outside of these services.
