Southern to run 60 more trains over bonfire weekend

Southern will be providing around 60 more trains between Haywards Heath and Victoria, with a half-hourly service running from 7am to 10pm. If the strike goes ahead, almost all 156 Southern stations will have either a train or bus service. There will be extra staff at stations to help passengers with arrangements in place for passengers to use alternative transport providers.

On both days, there will be a restricted service, with many routes having fewer trains, and on some routes there will be no train service at all. On some routes, a service will be provided through ticket acceptance with other train operators.
