Industrial action by the RMT union on Saturday (29 July) is set to disrupt Northern customers this weekend.

RMT members will halt all but a handful of Northern services across the North of England.

Due to the impact strikes have on fleet displacement, 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 due to action by the RMT union.

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