Kingston’s train services will not run during evenings next week as part of a massive disruption due to industrial strike action after the Easter holiday.
South West Trains have announced trains going through Kingston will operate a vastly reduced service and will not be running after 7pm during the strikes on April 6, 7, 8 and 9.

South West Trains (SWT) has been revealed as the only train company in London refusing to allow passengers to top up their Oyster cards at its stations, despite pressure from Transport for London (TfL).
All national rail operators in London agreed to accept Oyster cards for pay-as-you-go journeys in January, and the association of train operating companies said the most of the 237 additional stations currently or would soon also allow customers to buy or top up their Oyster cards.
But South West Trains will not introduce this technology at its stations, having said it was not part of its franchise agreement with the Department for Transport, forcing passengers to go to nearby newsagents to top up.
Kingston’s buses are set to carry messages of peace in an effort to counter extremists who hijack the Islamic faith for political means. The Ahmadiyya Muslim community will also distribute thousands of leaflets on the subject of loyalty, freedom, equality, respect and peace, to reassert true Islamic principles.
Buses in Kingston will carry the message “Love for All. Hatred for None”.
A rogues gallery has been released as part of an ongoing campaign to tackle yobs who cause chaos on buses. Police have spent months trying to track down seven individuals after various crimes were committed on public transport - and took the decision to release these images as a last-ditch public appeal for information.
The move is part of Operation BusTag, which is run by a Metropolitan Police transport team and CCTV investigation unit to identify, arrest and bring to justice anyone caught carrying out criminal damage by on-bus cameras.
