Possible bad news for rail travellers:

The largest rail union, RMT, today confirmed that members will be taking 24 hours of strike action from 5pm Thursday 4th June through to 4.59pm on Friday 5th June.

Proving without Bob Crow they can still be a massive shower of cunts.

Doesn't happen often but, for once, I'm feeling okay about being a bus wanker.

What provisions are there if you've paid a journey already? Do you just get a refund or would they lay on a taxi or something?

This seems to give an idea of what the plans were last time: http://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wa...e-what-9301591

Basically, you can move your ticket to a different day either side if there's a train running, but they won't lay on a bus or anything.

Relieved to be traveling by car for this tour (as an aside, we wanted to use the train to Edinburgh, but it was a total rip off and far cheaper to drive and park for 2 days!), but what a hassle for everyone relying on trains I'm all for the right to strike, but let's hope they sort something out before next week.
