Passengers face fewer services or cancellations as the rail sector faces high absence rates.
Rail passengers are facing cancellations or fewer services as train companies face high levels of staff absences due to Covid.Train companies including ScotRail, CrossCountry and LNER have announced reduced timetables and passengers have been warned of cancellations.
"Over the last few weeks because of record numbers of Covid cases we have been cancelling too many trains so we have decided to proactively put this revised timetable in to give our customers greater certainty on the service we can offer," he said.Mr Hynes said the operator was "pretty confident" the reduced timetable would "prove to be a robust service for customers in the coming weeks".
The industry body said there would be "some short-notice cancellations so our advice to anyone travelling is to check online before they set out or to sign up for automatic alerts from National Rail Alert Me".
