Somehow I had missed that there's a strike on today that affects us. All of the news that I had seen mentioned only 5 November, not the 4th.
We had planned to use the return portion of LM-only off-peak tickets we already have to travel from Nuneaton to Euston in time for a West End show this evening at 19:30. I presume, given the severe disruption, there is cross-ticket acceptance in place with other operators, but I can't find this mentioned anywhere on nationalrail.co.uk or
www.londonnorthwesternrailway.co.uk - They only talk about getting refunds or deferring travel, not what arrangements are in place for those that still need to travel. Are our tickets going to be accepted on other operators?
The other issue is that it seems our only option after my partner finishes work at 16:00 is to go via Leicester at 16:24 which is not even a valid route.
