Not sure what level of service your train operator is running during this week's #RailStrikes? The National Rail site has a good overview here: nationalrail.co.uk/service_d… - Tweet them - or us! - if you have any specific journey queries.
As well as the #RailStrike this week, there's also an unconnected #TubeStrike tomorrow - check @TfL's service updates before you head out at tfl.gov.uk - note the new #ElizabethLine central section is running: normal 5min freq 9-6, and 10min freqs before/after.
#RailStrike is ON tomorrow (21st), Thursday 23rd and Saturday 25th June, with disruption expected Weds/Fri/Sun too, particularly mornings. Need to get somewhere urgently? Send us a Tweet and we'll help you work out the best route to get where you need to be!
Hey, remember us? OK, probably not! But years ago we were Twitter regulars helping keep people moving, and up until the pandemic we popped up occasionally at times of major travel disruption. Well, we're back to keep you moving this summer and beyond, so do Tweet your travel Qs!

⚠️ Crowding - Exit Only ⚠️
The station is very busy due to #StormCaira - we have limited concourse space and will be operating an ‘exit only’ system.
Please be patient with the team/follow instructions.
We will reopen soon. This system will be intermittently in use today.
