Rail travellers across England face a week of disruption with strike action taking place on the Tube, as well as at four train companies.
RMT union members at Southern, Merseyrail, Arriva Rail North and Greater Anglia are staging a walkout which began today, Tuesday 3rd October, and will continue on Thursday 5th October.
Underground drivers belonging to the union Aslef are also due to strike this Thursday. The London Overground and DLR will be unaffected by the action.
Greater Anglia is planning to run a full service on the strike days, and Southern said it would attempt to run a normal service on most of its routes.
Arriva Rail North plans to run about 1,200 services across the north, 46% of its normal timetable, on both days between 07:00 BST and 19:00 BST.
Most Merseyrail services will run between 07:00 and 19:00, with a break during the middle of the day, and some stations will be closed.
