ASLEF have given 14 days notice of rail strikes, this will mean there will be no Southeastern services operating that day, Thameslink maybe unaffected by the industrial action in which case a half- hourly service will be operating between Rainham/Luton via Central London & Charlton, more information will be made available after the Queens funeral.
The strike will also affect people travelling to the London Marathon that weekend.
A further strike is planned on the 5th October.
Train drivers set to resume strikes in October

Also first home game of the season for me on the 1st and might have to walk from London Bridge where we are staying (or get a bus!).
The central section of the Elizabeth line [Paddington/Abbey Wood] will be unaffected by this action.

Those workers are not slaves obliged to do our bidding whenever we want. They are organised and taking action.
It certainly does not matter if others see it as unjustified to strike, strikes are supposed to have an impact aren’t they?
In the age of the internet government legislation to emasculate unions won’t work, people can still organise privately to take unofficial and wildcat action.
The solution is to rebuild a coherent society establishing an agreed social contract.
However the UK was split in 2016 and a coherent society is decades and decades away, it will never come together under the current circumstances.
The only thing the powerful have left to use is fear and force, persuasion left years ago.
Striking workers are a sign of the times.
One of the biggest charity earners of the year being affected makes this an incredibly selfish action.
So wont be surprised if all Services arent back to normal until something like 9-10am
Its OK though as some divs that took a job for 50k a year, have decided it's not enough.
.... or just strike on any other day like they have multiple times already this year.
Isn't the strike on a Saturday when the marathon is on a Sunday?
Still a good idea in performance art terms, like the Barristers on indefinite strike turning up with their wigs and gowns and shopping trolleys and whatnot, but only mouthing words, or using semaphore or morse code to communicate.
I once put up my hand in front of 400 other union members and suggested, why don't we work and give our Friday afternoons pay to the strike fund. We were on strike for the nurses, miners, GCHQ workers, all worthy causes to support, plus our own battle in fighting Heseltine off from privatising the yards.
However that went down like a lead balloon, as it meant that most of the workers couldn't go to the pub early and many had second jobs as taxi drivers etc. So we just walked out.
'Dont travel or make other plans' just doesn't cut it in this scenario either.
All strikes have an impact in one way or another.
If they feel the need to strike then strike another day where they wouldn't be fucking up a massive charity fundraising event.
Previously the rail unions have never organised strikes at weekends as the idea was to cause maximum disruption to businesses in the hope that those businesses will then look to exert pressure on the government to broker a resolution.
Now they know if they strike on a work day loads of people will just work from home, so they've now changed to trying to fuck up peoples social lives instead. Ordinary working peoples social lives.
It's not even about their workers rights or conditions really. They're on a much wider crusade.
Does anybody think there might be even a soupcon of truth in the information that the workers and management are trying to reach a settlement, but the management have to go to the government to check (previously with Grant Schapps) and the government refuse to help get a settlement, and refuses to allow one?
