Just has a look and can't find any confirmation whether the crossrail will be running which is ****.
They may run a limited service on the Shenfield to Liverpool Street part of the line; they did this during the last set of strikes but Crossrail as a single entity isn't really a thing yet. It's still a number of separate lines. They even have different sets of timetables. The line out to Reading is similar to the line to Reading from Waterloo where you need to buy separate tickets once you reach a certain point (Feltham & West Drayton respectively).Just has a look and can't find any confirmation whether the crossrail will be running which is ****.
Its not about that. It's about whether the company that runs crossrail are striking or not and if they are not striking will they be able to run trains due to strikes affecting the infrastructure they use.Its likely that they'll run a skeleton service, there'll be managers and scabs working id imagine.
Both tfl and national rail are striking on the 19th I think. Tfl certainly are so the Elizabeth line will definitely be affected. As others have said, the Paddington to Reading line uses national rail infrastructure anyway so its bound to be affectedJust has a look and can't find any confirmation whether the crossrail will be running which is ****.
No wonder you went off the rails.They didn't even polish me Nobby. I spent all day on the go, with people climbing in and out of me and dropping litter inside me, They wouldn't even let me socialise with the other trains. It was really traumatic.
I had a dream mate. I wanted to be an aeroplane but you have to work your way up. At the age of three I got a job as a roller skate and after that I was a tricycle for a bit. I was ambitious, so I applied to be a mountain bike but I froze at the interview and I ended up becoming a Raleigh Grifter with knackered gears instead. I was a car for a while and I studied really hard to become a train, only to find out that being a train is really crap.No wonder you went off the rails.

Are you managing to hitch a lift to Reading Capybara? If so I will keep an eye out for you as I should be putting in one of my infrequent appearances...The OP is misleading. Ascap@Unravel_Morrison said, the strike on the day of the Reading match is an RMT one so the whole network is affected. The so-called Elizabeth Line will be affected no less than GWR on that day.
No, I won't be going. The likely lack of trains was the last straw.Are you managing to hitch a lift to Reading Capybara? If so I will keep an eye out for you as I should be putting in one of my infrequent appearances...
I thought that may cause you some angst. Another time....No, I won't be going. The likely lack of trains was the last straw.
Annoyingly the EFL have scheduled that when I'm away!Yes also not going to this game because of the train issues. At least there will be no problem getting a ticket for this one. Watford my next away game.
It’s just beige. Their fans don’t do much and it’s miles from anythingWhy do you say that Facefuzz? I have never been, but looking at getting tickets for this one. Just wondered what is so bad about it so I am prepared.
