Two more unions with members employed by Network Rail have announced they will join the RMT’s rail workers in calling strikes later this month, piling more pressure on Great Britain’s rail services.
About 2,500 members of the Transport Salaried Staffs Association (TSSA), including controllers, will walk out on 18 and 20 August – the same days as RMT members – although those in managerial grades, who provide contingency staff to keep services running, will not be on strike.
