The National Union of Rail, Maritime, and Transport Workers (RMT) will bring all but a handful of Northern services across the North of England to a halt once again, this weekend.

There will be limited Northern services this Saturday (July 29), and due to the impact strikes have, early morning services on Sunday July 30 are also expected to be disrupted.

Tricia Williams, chief operating officer at Northern, said: “For the third time this month, thousands of our customers will be inconvenienced as a result of action by the RMT union.

“We all want to see an end to this dispute and the uncertainty that on-going strike action causes to people’s confidence in the railway.”

Lancashire Telegraph:

Northern is the second largest train operator in the UK, with 2,500 services a day to more than 500 stations across the North of England.

Additional disruption is also expected between July 31 - August 5 due to industrial action called by ASLEF. Check your journey and further services with other train operators, before travelling.
