Train passengers are to be hit with fresh travel chaos today as tens of thousands of rail workers go on strike again. Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT), the Transport Salaried Staffs Association (TSSA) and Unite will walk out again in the the long-running dispute over pay, jobs and conditions.
Workers will strike for 24 hours with the industrial action impacting on Network Rail and a number of train companies across the country. RMT members at Network Rail and 14 train operators, TSSA members at seven companies, and Unite members at NR will strike again, along with London United bus drivers.
Sunday morning train services will also be affected by the knock-on effect of Saturday’s action. It's anticipated that only around one in five trains will run on Saturday, with some areas having no services all day, as the unions stage their second stoppage in three days.
