Trains run only on four routes in Kent today as drivers in the Aslef union strike over pay and conditions.
Southeastern services operate between Ashford and St Pancras, Orpington and Charing Cross, and Dartford and Charing Cross via Sidcup or Grove Park.
The Rail Delivery Group (RDG) previously proposed a pay increase of 4% each year for two years, based on a four-day week before overtime.
Aslef general secretary Mick Whelan mentioned that his union turned down the offer but didn’t specify the level of pay rise they would accept.
“I want to get back to the days where we’re talking about greater capacity, green, cheaper railways, safer travel for women,” Mr Whelan told BBC Radio Kent.
“Nobody wants to be standing out here in all weathers losing money. Any worker who hasn’t had a pay rise for five years has the right to ask for one.”
Mr. Whelan attributed the strikes to “the privateers” who have unrealistic demands of his members.
