About 40,000 members of the RMT union from Network Rail and 14 train operators are taking industrial action today, tomorrow, Friday and Saturday - meaning most services nationwide will not run. Train drivers are also set to stage a one-day walkout on Thursday.

RMT strike days will see approximately half of the network shut down, with just 20% of normal services expected to run. These trains will also start later and finish much earlier than usual, with journeys only possible between 7.30am and 6.30pm.According to The Times, ministers fear that millions of passengers will give up on train travel altogether as a result of the worst week of rail disruption in 30 years.
But Aslef general secretary Mick Whelan, who represents train drivers, said workers have been left with little choice but to strike because they haven't had a pay rise since April 2019 - with high levels of inflation resulting in a real-terms pay cut. The Department for Transport has warned that passengers have"rightly had enough of rail strikes" - and called on unions to stop taking industrial action.
