East Molesey, Surrey. KT8 0BT
Inside the M25. Walton sort of area if you remember going there

Thames Ditton, on the railway line to Hampton Court from Waterloo or Clapham Junction.

Postcode KT8 0BT.

We have a longstanding fan living nearby. A veteran of Moreton in Marsh days, so I'm pleased he has an easy journey.

Sat 10th Nov - just looked at trains around London and there is a strike on Saturdays in Nov so no trains possibly running from South Western Rail. Could be a problem for us Essex /
Londoners.

Just my luck. I was looking at South West Trains. Exeter - Woking -
Esher.

It's a bit of a trek for me - a 15 minute walk but I should be able to get there At least I won't be affected by train strikes.

A certain Mad Norm may try to get a ticket.
I knew I'd get a chance one day

Another 'local' game for me, after Crawley.

Hope for a better result, too.

Travel on SWR quite a bit and they are average in terms of service. To be fair I've made a few trips on Saturday when there is strike action and the core services run OK to an amended timetable. You could do Waterloo>Esther - it's not too far to walk from there.

SWR (and SWT before them) have been running strikes for about 3 years now, I'm yet to be affected by one to Waterloo from the Southampton area, despite using their service at least 6 times a week.

Whether that's different in the London area remains to be seen, but they'll put which services are and aren't running online in the week leading up to it - there's a strike running all this week including Saturday and the Saturday services at the moment are here: https://www.southwesternrailway.com/pla ... 27-october

They've tended to run the exact same "reduced" services every time there's a strike, so I'd say that was a pretty good indicator of Waterloo to Esher trains for Nov 10th.

Esher Station isn't closed, and it's on the mainline to (I think) Woking so even a reduced service from the four trains an hour they usually run will be at least one train an hour.

In short, should be fine.

Shouldn't affect you much once you've got the rail replacement bus from Exeter to Yeovil.
