Rail passengers will be hit by strike action this weekend – with more walkouts planned for early in the new year.
Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) union at Network Rail and a number of train operators will down tools at 6pm on Christmas Eve and not return to work until 7am on December 27.
And they’ll also walk out on January 3, 4, 5 and 6, while train drivers in the Aslef union at 15 operators – including two which run services out of Lockerbie – will strike on January 5.
