Rail operators have warned of disruptions to train networks across the UK today as union members are set to walk out again.
Members of Aslef will walk out for 24 hours on Friday followed by a Saturday ban on members working overtime.
South Western Railway has advised passengers to only travel where “absolutely necessary” on Friday, as most of its network is set to be closed. It comes after Aslex rejected a two-year offer earlier this year which would have seen drivers receive a backdated pay rise of 4% for 2022 and this year. "The union leadership has its head in the sand and refuses to put our fair and reasonable offer to their members," a spokesperson said.
"We urge the Aslef leadership to acknowledge the substantial financial challenges facing the rail industry and work with us to achieve a more dependable and robust railway system for the future."
