Saturday 13th May is a strike day. So far as I can see operators haven't announced any changes to services yet but I'd guess they will in due course. I've already bought my ticket so probably have to get a refund if there are cancellations.

I will be travelling from Winchester (my saints mate lives there).  Most likely by bus, it is not far but need a lot of time due to the tour of Hampshire housing estates along the way. The train takes 10 minutes!!!
