I'm sure that I saw the Overground is only running from New Cross /New Cross gate to Highbury and Islington on Sunday..
Am I mistaken?
I'm working on sunday so would appreciate clarification.
Thank-you

Southeastern and London Underground will also have industrial action on Monday 8th April.
Southeastern will have no service on the Hayes line, but Lewisham will have services to Charing Cross. New Cross has no service on Monday except for London Overground.
Thameslink from Crofton Park and Catford won't be operating either.
London Underground will have very little service if any, for us this may mean early closures of Canada Water, Whitechapel and Highbury & Islington as they're managed by them.

Hi, I'm traveling from Honor Oak Park onto St Pancras on Sunday 12/5 for Eurostar (fortunately a mid morning departure). Is there a schedule / frequency for rail replacement buses from Honor Oak to New Cross Gate on the Sunday?

Very helpfully Bromley South has a complete closure on 12 May taking out Thameslink between London Blackfriars and Sevenoaks! Bit surprised they are taking that section out on the same day but hey-ho, that might require some sympathetic planning.
So for me its probably rail replacement /171/172 bus to New Cross Gate/Overground to Whitechapel/tube to St P or P4 to Lewisham/train to LB/Northern to St P. At least I know in advance!

Or the 63 all the way from Forest Hill Road, about 1 1/2 hours.
