    Is anyone still planning on train? I'm too lazy to ring up Northern rail regarding these strikes so wondering if anyone else has any information? if not if any busses still available, I don't mind driving but at a very last resort.

    Oh and a very long shot but...………… Anyone selling or know of anyone selling a standing ticket?

    Cheers reds.

    Last time I checked, no trains at all to or from Accrington all day. Its a bus from Bradford, Halifax or Blackburn...

    And the earliest return arrives at 9:06 on Sunday morning - although it does get to Sheffield on Saturday night,

    But you’ve just said they’re not sacking anyone, and no not all businesses act the same.
