Travelling To London
hi, i am going into london next thursday, and have just realised swr areon strike. I'd normally go basinstoke-waterloo or second option newbury-paddington. While i dont think newbury-paddington is affected, that line seems to have some weird restrictions on what it classes as off peak, meaning my return journey at about tea time is very expensive. What are my options? I have disabled parking badge (and disabled rail card). are there any outlying tube stations nearish my outward journey i could drive to, park at for free then tube it?

SWR's no-trains day is the Tuesday. on Thursday, trains will be operated to a reduced timetable but (apart from some early cancellations) the regular stopping service from Basigstoke will operate. Additionally the Exeter/Salisbury trains will be near normal, but the Bournemouth/Weymouth services reduce to hourly.

The Journey Planner on the National Rail website hasn't yet been updated to take any possible industrial action for the forthcoming week into account. However the relevant updates should be included by tomorrow, so simply checking then should provide the answers to both your queries:
