Rail travellers set to be hit by industrial action

0

RAIL travellers in the Warrington area are likely to have their travel plans disrupted tomorrow (Saturday) as a result of industrial action by the RMT union.

Train operator Northern has warned that the action will bring all but a handful of services across the North of England to a halt.
Due to the impact strikes have on fleet displacement, early morning services on Sunday (July 30) are also expected to be disrupted.

Tricia Williams, chief operating officer at Northern, said: “For the third time this month, thousands of our customers will be inconvenienced as a result of action by the RMT union.
“We all want to see an end to this dispute and the uncertainty that on-going strike action causes to people’s confidence in the railway.”
For more information about the strike and the skeleton service in place, customers should visit: www.northernrailway.co.uk/travel/strikes.
Northern is the second largest train operator in the UK, with 2,500 services a day to more than 500 stations across the North of England.
