No problem, just a add on note, Bristol to Cheltenham on XC▸ is around 40 mins compared to FGW▸ around 70 mins, assuming different routes are taken, or does a few extra stops take 30 mins extra?
Also the FGW Services stop at Yate and Cam and Dursley.
My cousin wants to go from Southampton to Sheffield via Brum on CC on the 21st. If there's a strike would a vai Brum ticket be valid on SWT▸ and EMT» ?
I would assume so, but as Inspector Blakey pointed out.
Very possibly, although you'd need to check nearer the time to ensure that ticket acceptance was indeed operating. If there *was* a strike but XC was still able to operate a reasonable train service, you would most likely be expected to travel on that. Best advice is to keep an eye on the XC website.
If they are operating a reasonable service if the strike comes to fruition, Unlikely that ticket acceptance would be authorised.
However, I guess XC's version of "a reasonable service" is trains so rammed that they leave people behind...
