Rail strike map reveals the Welsh train lines affected by train staff walkout on June 21, 23 and 25

Half of the UK's rail lines will be closed during next week's strikes, Network Rail has said, with vast areas of Wales being hit by the walkouts by train staff. Swansea, Bridgend, Carmarthen, Aberystwyth, Llandudno, Holyhead and Pwllheli are among the areas that will receive no passenger services.

Services to some areas of England and anywhere north of Glasgow or Edinburgh in Scotland will also be stopped and even the lines that remain open will stop earlier than normal. Services will only run from 7.30am until 6.30pm. You can see the full map of services that will be operating below:
