LNER Wakefield Westgate to KGX 09:29 28th July

[jmr82]

Hi all, going to London on the 28th July (day after my birthday, and of course the proposed strikes)....

Firstly what's the chances the train journey will be impacted due to the previous days strike? Was really looking forward to this and booked first class so will be disappointed if it all goes to pot!

Also just had a look online at the timetables and prices for that day and all looks ok except this particular train is down as "sold out" on LNER website, and also trainline and the rest...

Trains earlier and later (even the 9:58) all still have availability.

My final question is... would the above indicate a problem / cancellation or of course it could just be fully booked...

Let me know your thoughts!

Thanks

Welcome to the forum.

At a guess, based on last time, it will not be starting as usual at Bradford, which may explain why it hasn't been released for reservations.

LNER published a PDF strike timetable which showed services starting with the 0740 Leeds, but from memory, on the one day I checked, the first couple of hours were rather disrupted - some trains to time but a couple of major delays.
