Tube Challenge on days between National Rail strikes

Hi there,

Would anyone have any information/advice on doing a full network challenge attempt next Friday, September 16? It falls the day between the two National Rail strikes.

I'm assuming because the London Underground is, in a lot of parts, separate to National Rail, it might not be an issue in the early morning - but I might be wrong, so feel free to correct me! Not likely to be using any National Rail service until around 12-noon ish.

National Rail has links to information from all the affected train companies.

A quick scan of Thameslink and Great Northern suggests disruption to morning and evening services but you might be ok during the middle of the day.

Good luck!

As EAW has posted elsewhere, the industrial action for next week has now been suspended.

Though this is now a question I'm pondering regarding whether or not to attempt the FNC next Friday, with a strike on Saturday.

Biggest concern is whether the 2311 Amersham - Marylebone and 0039 Paddington to Reading will be running.
