The report of the family turning up laden down with luggage for their Christmas trip and unable to travel due to the strike was particularly poignant I thought.

Probably no great surprise in the quietness; it's a Bank Holiday and strike day restart, with people (and especially none-regular leisure users) warned away by rail industry publicity, magnified by the press filling its pages and feeds with disproportionate dire warnings. An opportunity missed - "The Great New Year Sale" - why not visit London and take in Oxford Street, Regent Street, Carnaby Street and Berwick Street ... three adults for the price of two, super-off-peak travel cards valid all day until January - just £23.30 a head including all the buses and undergrounds from Didcot ... buy separate day returns to Didcot such as an extra £13.20 from Melksham ... |

The "opportunity missed" today is for just about all involved - the sales have started, so shops, restaurants, pubs etc will all be losing revenue thanks to the rail strikes - as well as the railway itself - although other businesses of course don't get bailed out by the taxpayer in these circumstances. |
