Train Strikes 13th May

[kill_the_drum]

I booked train tickets a while ago to take advantage of low prices and took the view that I could have a day on the beer in London if all else failed. It wasn't arrogance and expectation that we would get there, it was pragmatism. Unfortunately, due to the strike, I've had to get a refund for my tickets.

Have you got a refund because your particular train isn’t running? Or have you just decided not to risk it?
I’ve booked specific trains both ways but can’t find any info on when announcements will be made as to what trains will/won’t be running!

I assumed no trains will be running from the networks that are taking part in the strike.

I just decided not to risk it, if there's less trains and high demand it wouldn't be particularly pleasant anyway.

All recent visits to Wembley I have parked at Stanmore (either in the car park at the Tube Station, or reserved someones driveway on Just Park) and got the tube from there direct to Wembley, it's easy.

IF Notts get there I will do the same again.

I think I'll either be there for the weekend and see some friends or just take a club coach, assuming they put them on

Good point you can get refunds on trains a day before or even on the day if you cancel before your train departs.

I think you pay an admin fee of around £5 but if a train gets cancelled then you get a full refund.

From what I’ve read trains will still be running across all networks but just less of them.

Really? Hmmm I wonder thetrainline.com has accurate times for those days.

If you were to take the trains, you would be competing with the Forest fans for a space.
