Shrewsbury away in a couple weeks on 20:43 - Aug 7 with 982 views | Freddies_Ears | Hmm.. trains will be a nightmare, with absolutely no guarantee you'll get back afterwards. But. Shrewsbury is a good town for beers, historic, characterful, and some super pubs and bars. Warning to anyone trying to avoid the train strike by travelling Friday - there is a London underground/ TFL rail strike, so crossing London will be a pain. There is the Stansted to Birmingham route, on tiny trains that tend to be very full and 'orrible... |  | |  |

My other slight worry is so far literally every person I’ve asked has said they don’t fancy it. And I don’t particularly fancy drinking alone. Not an ideal start to my Shropshire plan |  |

Agree about the town of Shrewsbury, well worth a visit in my opinion. Although as the strike is an RMT one, Shrewsbury wasn't served by any services on the previous RMT strike days. |  | |  |

I'm doing Burton instead... |  | |  |
