Northern trains

Will the Metro be running on a strike day? I can probs make it via bus and metro.
Think so it’s Aslef union train driver’s on strike don’t think the Metro have out to do with the strike

though I might be mistaken

The Tyne and Wear Metro will not be affected by the latest strike action. It has been forced to alter its services during previous strike action by Network Rail, but that action has now been resolved.

Bump for disco bus!
Also I’m on train up to meet my dad for a few beers in newc (planned for ages before fixtures came out!) heading to tyne bar to watch some bands
But
Bank hol weekend + mags at home guess how many carriages 😂😂
And yes it’s already full at Hartlepool 😂😂
 
It’s now set off from London so suppose it’s too late for it to be cancelled now?
You can sense my trepidation given the amazing service offered by northern over the years😂
First thing I done this morning was check twitter😂

Just going past Stevenage now, all looks well!

Looks like they cancelled one yesterday. So plenty of time for things to change 🤦🏼‍♂️
 
Grand central (When running) offer such a better service than Northern.

Looks like the half 5 from Sunderland stopped at Eaglescliffe for 108mins due to a fault 🤢
