Unable to view Northern strike timetables for 17 November

[gray1404]

Is anyone able to view the Northern strike timetables for 17 November? I am getting 504 Gateway Time-out when I go to https://www.northernrailway.co.uk/strike or http://www.northernrailway.co.uk/strike

Looks like the whole site is having a hiccup.

So the night before the strike, trying to plan travel and unable to access the timetables. Typical Northern. I can't find the strike timetables on National Rail either.

There's been an extra possession announced so the contents of the timetables for Manchester - Bolton and Manchester - Wigan is now junk regardless. Presumably someone is currently working feverishly on new ones

I'm travelling St Helens Central to Liverpool Lime Street and back. I am assuming it will be something like an hourly service until about 1900

I'm assuming that the website is still down for everyone. I get "Error 502 Bad Gateway" when I try to visit their homepage.

Same for me. Still down. This is totally unacceptable. Unable to access the Strike timetable still.

Why would you assume that? The times have been all random on that route recently

Have you thought that this could actually be a problem outside of Northern's control, such as a server failure? They do happen.

Does that make it acceptable?

Unless it's an unexpected fault that needs fixing it really is unacceptable for NR to add a last minute possession on a day when passengers need particular clarity for their travel.
