More rail strikes due
RAIL workers at two companies are said to be supporting a fresh strike in the dispute over guards on trains.
Members of the RMT at Arriva Rail North (Northern) and South Western Railway walked out for 24 hours, with further strikes planned.
Services were cancelled or disrupted, with buses replacing trains.
RMT general secretary Mick Cash said: “RMT members are standing rock solid again this morning on both Northern and South Western Railway in the continuing fight for safety, security and access on our trains. It is scandalous that while other train operators have been prepared to engage seriously...on the crucial issue of a guaranteed second safety-critical member of staff on their services.”
