Another rail strike could be on its way as staff working for CrossCountry prepare to vote on taking industrial action.
Employees who are members of the Transport Salaried Staffs Association (TSSA) will begin voting early next week on a proposal to strike over pay, conditions and job security issues. It is separate from the RMT strike set for three days in June.
The TSSA members include 132 CrossCountry employees based at stations on the line, which connects Newcastle, Alnmouth, Berwick, Morpeth, Chester-le-Street and Durham with destinations including Aberdeen, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Leeds, York, Sheffield, Derby, Nottingham, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Plymouth and Cornwall.
