Strike Action

[BK63 YWP]

Any idea what time all buses will be back in garage tonight presume before 11

Go on bus times and wait for the buses to disappear... Why do you need to know when all buses will be back in the garage? NX has said services will be affected after 10.30pm tonight

Is there much similarity to the deal offered to Arriva North West who went on strike for several weeks?

I have a question. If tomorrow a lot of Union drivers decide they want to work, could they then change their mind on Tuesday (or at any future point) and join the strike? Or is it a black and white you either strike or work?
You could end up having a more reduced service on some days compared to others and with the outpouring of customer dissatisfaction and anger at the moment, that won't do the cause any favourite

It's the same as any other strike, as soon as you cross the picket line or say you're going to work during, there's no turning back

As I have no experience or knowledge of what happens during 'any other strike' this is why I asked. But your answer gave the information I enquired about so thank you.

Unite states the owners of Arriva are a wealthy company but surely each bus company in the UK are separate companies and each of their bus companies would report their own trading figures to companies house but as these are apart of Arrive these  also get included in DB accounts who then reports there own annual profits/losses to its board.  You would have to look deep into DB accounts to see where these profits have came from and like NX most of DB profits would likely come from its European companies that fall under the DB group.

According to companies house Arriva North West are late filing accounts, so it might not look to good up north.

51 seems to be running fine but there's no 4's. The 7:15am 4 hasn't arrived...

[Rachvince53]

No NX buses to New Cross Hospital,  anyone needing to go visit using a bus will need to use either Let's Go 65, Banga 53 or Chaserider 71.

No AG 4 spotted yet,however it might be a non tracking bus 

[2206]

Loads of people were waiting at the 17 stops on the Hob Moor Road this morning.
Do these people never check the website at least?

Also PB are running the 4's it appears?

RTI is being real helpful with "refer to timetables" would be nice if nx could put paper signs up
