Helen Flanagan makes huge train mistake as she travels home from Glasgow with kids

Helen Flanagan made a bit of a blunder on her way home from Glasgow as she hopped on the train with her three children. The former Coronation Street actress had been enjoying some time in the city, where she previously lived, over the festive period with her kids Matilda, Delilah and Charlie.

But en route home to London, she realised she made a mistake by travelling when the train strikes are taking place. The industrial action that we saw in 2022 has continued into the New Year with five days of disruption this week.

The long-running dispute between the National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers (RMT) and train operating companies around pay and working conditions is yet to be solved, and so this week rail journeys may be disrupted.Helen decided to travel amid the strikes and took to Instagram to document her journey, saying she was "the idiot getting on trains".She said: "So, my driver has said to me 'don't go on the trains today,' but I decided that, you know, it might be ok, there might be some trains running."So, I'm on a train - I've got to go to London tomorrow, but I'm meeting the girls' nana in Birmingham.

So, yeah, I'm just hoping that I can actually... as long as I get the kids ok I don't know how I'm going to go down to London tomorrow.
