I am trying to find the dates of a British Railways strike in the summer of the mid 1950s. I am actually trying to collate where the family holidays were in which years and I know one year we went to a holiday in Dymchurch or Littlestone Kent and we had to go by coach. I thought the big rail strike was 1956 but the only reference I could find was a National Emergency in June 1955. Trying to search rail strikes on the internet only shows up the current ones.
