Northern has confirmed they will not operate any trains on Saturday, November 26 as a result of ASLEF strike action. Taking to their website to confirm the news, people are being urged not to travel on this day as there will be "major disruption across the whole rail network".
They wrote: "On strike days, only travel by rail if necessary and if you do travel, expect severe disruption and plan ahead - especially the first and last trains of the day. If you do decide to travel, there will be very limited services running across the whole rail network so remember to check your entire journey as other train service providers may be affected.
