Largest mass action over pay and conditions on Britain’s railways will bring some lines to a halt on Saturday
A 24-hour strike by train drivers across nine operating companies will leave large parts of Britain without services on Saturday, in the latest mass action over pay and working conditions on the railways.
The Aslef union warned that striking drivers were “here for the long haul”, on the eve of action that will stop most intercity trains on routes between London and the Midlands, northern England and Scotland, and affect trains in many other parts of Britain.
