I hope not - but I only recently started needing to frequently travel by train and it's often been a consideration I've had to make so is at the forefront of my mind with any timetable changes. I do hope it gets sorted and these strikes can be a thing of the past, but from what I've gathered the government is refusing to meet with Aslef. I'll not say any more on the matter so as to not derail the thread but;That really shouldn't need to be a long term consideration.
TLDR, I hope strikes don't need to be a long term consideration.
