Major disruption to some rail services expected next weekend

Merseyrail (Organization) Norrn

There will be "major disruption" to some rail services next weekend due to planned strike action.

Northern has confirmed they will not operate any trains on Saturday, November 26 as a result of ASLEF strike action. Taking to their website to confirm the news, people are being urged not to travel on this day as there will be "major disruption across the whole rail network".

They wrote: "On strike days, only travel by rail if necessary and if you do travel, expect severe disruption and plan ahead - especially the first and last trains of the day. If you do decide to travel, there will be very limited services running across the whole rail network so remember to check your entire journey as other train service providers may be affected.

"There will be no rail replacement buses on strike days for Northern services and some Northern stations may be closed or have reduced hours due to the limited staffing and services. Advanced tickets have been withdrawn from sale for strike days.

"Please continue to check services before you travel on Friday 25 and Sunday, November 27 as a handful of services have been affected."

However, Merseyrail has confirmed that services will not be affected by the strike action and Merseyrail trains will run to the normal timetable. People are being urged to check their journey planner before they travel.

The strike action is expected to impact the following operators:

Avanti West Coast
Chiltern Railways
CrossCountry
East Midlands Railway
Great Western Railway
