The Transport Salaried Staffs' Association (TSSA) has announced workers at nine UK railway firms have voted in favour of going on strike. The action is scheduled to start midday on Monday, September 26 and last until midday on Tuesday, September 27.
It comes following a dispute over pay, job security and conditions. Train companies where workers voted for industrial action in a ballot in July include: Avanti West Coast station grades, c2c, East Midlands Railway, CrossCountry, Great Western Railway, LNER, Southeastern, West Midlands Trains, Northern, Greater Anglia and TransPennine Express.
An update shared by the TSSA today (August 31) said nine companies and Network Rail staff would be participating in the industrial action next month, with commuters being warned of more travel misery and disruption to come this summer, the Mirror reports.
