Perth and Kinross passengers are set to experience a third day without train services this week after union and railway employer talks on Wednesday failed to halt planned strike action.
Saturday’s service shutdown in the region will go ahead with around 40,000 Network Rail staff nationwide walking out - in the biggest rail strike in 30 years - over a dispute over pay, working conditions and redundancies.
Local commuters went without trains yesterday and Tuesday due to the mass industrial action from RMT (National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers) members with only five routes running in Scotland on those days - all across the central belt.
