TRANSCRIPT
-
Rail strikes Strike action is taking place on West Midlands Railway and London Northwestern Railway during November and December.
You can still get to where you need to go but you will need to check your journey before you travel.
Key advice:
• Plan ahead: Strike day timetables will be made available a few days before a strike day but could change last minute. Plan your journey based on current information but remember to check it again before you travel by using nationalrail.co.uk or by checking with your train operator.
• Leave more time for journeys: Other train companies are due to run a normal Saturday service but will be busier than usual. Don’t aim for the last train home, get to the station early and expect to queue.
• Stick to public transport: The West Midlands Metro and West Midlands bus networks are a good alternative to train if you are travelling between Wolverhampton and Birmingham and making local journeys.
• If you’re planning to go Christmas shopping or visit the Christmas Market consider travelling into centres earlier and leaving earlier. The busiest time to travel around the West Midlands will be between 15:00-16:00.
Travelling between Birmingham and Wolverhampton?
The Metro is accepting West Midlands Railway and London Northwestern Railway train tickets on a strike day.

Our travel shop in New Street station is open 08:30 to 18:30 on a strike day.
