The strikes will also affect service on Gatwick Express, Thameslink or Great Northern railway lines. This is with the exception of a limited shuttle service between Gatwick Airport and London Victoria; St Pancras, Luton Airport Parkway and Luton only and London King's Cross and Cambridge only.

Alongside all this, there will be a nationwide ban on overtime between January 29 and February 6, so customers should expect reduced services across the network. Full details and summaries, according to the Southern Railway website, are as follows:
