Help - Arriva

Thu Nov 25, 2010 12:55 pm

I need to travel back home tomorrow evening, from Halifax, but the last I heard the trains were on strike in Wales tomorrow & Saturday.

Is anyone aware of the latest status, otherwise I will have to book a coach (7.5 hours)?

Any help would be appreciated

If the strike does go ahead there will probably be a rail bus replacement service. Follow arriva trains wales on twitter and ask them. They're pretty good!

12% in todays climate that is outstanding. A couple % that is all we got, thanks to our unions selling us out. :evil:
