So I’ve got a nice 2 hour journey to pick a car up on Wednesday and I obviously can’t drive my car there. Instead I am faced with a 2 hour train journey to London and then the underground across. Although I am not travelling on a strike day, what are the chances my travel would be disrupted? Looking at heading in on the afternoon.

How long is a piece of string?
The best bet would be to check your train operator’s website and see if they are providing any advice on the in between days.
I’ve got to get from Cannock tonottingham on weds and there’s no trains running Cannock to Walsall all week. Luckily there’s a bus to Birmingham but it’s added a good 2.5 hours to the journey time. Gonna be a lonnnng day
BBC this morning were saying it’s only 60% timetable on the intervening days. So in theory your chances of disruption are 40%. However, most of the disruption is to do with getting trains to the right stations, so it’s mainly early and late. Your chances are better in the middle of the day.
Check the train operator’s site. They should have up to date revised timetables.
Otherwise, we’re all just going to give smart ass responses as we have no clue where you are and where you’re getting to.
I would assume I’ll be late and wouldn’t be surprised to not get there at all.
