Euston station rail strike warning as London Northwestern Railway cuts services for two days

"London Northwestern Railway ( LNR), which runs services into Euston station, is asking passengers to plan their travel in advance ahead of two days of strike action later this week. On Friday 22nd May and Saturday 23rd May a very limited service will be in operation on the LNR network due to strike action by members of the TSSA union. Passengers are advised to only travel if necessary as trains will only run on a small number of routes."

"Services on both dates will operate to a reduced timetable with no trains running after 7pm on Friday and a later 7am start of service on Saturday. Routes with a limited service on Friday 22 May and Saturday 23 May are: Birmingham - Liverpool - 1 train per hour Northampton - London Euston - 1 train per hour Birmingham - London Euston via Northampton - 1 train per hour"

"No trains will run on any other LNR route, including the Trent Valley Line, the Marston Vale Line or the Abbey Line. Some minor disruption to services is expected on the morning of Sunday, 24 May due to the displacement of trains."

"Ian McConnell, LNR managing director, said: "We encourage TSSA to continue talks with us to reach a resolution to this dispute. This strike action will cause disruption to our customers with a significantly reduced timetable in operation on both dates. We are doing all we can to minimise the impact as far as possible and apologise to customers for the inconvenience. However, where services are running, we advise customers to only travel if necessary and to allow more time for their journey.""
