Further disruption for rail passengers this weekend as strike action continues

Passengers are warned of further disruption to rail services this weekend with strike action and engineering work due to cause widespread disruption.

Further strike action by the National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers (RMT), combined with engineering work on the West Coast Mainline means there will be limited rail services between Carlisle and both Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Most services will be replaced by rail replacement buses.

Journeys will take in excess of an hour longer on all services running on Sunday between those stations.

There will be no TPE services running between Manchester/Liverpool Lime Street, Preston and Scotland on Sunday and customers should seek alternative transport or travel on Saturday or Monday instead.

Network Rail is carrying out engineering work between Carlisle and Edinburgh/Glasgow on Saturday and Sunday, with a replacement bus service running between Carlisle, Lockerbie Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Anyone heading to a major event by rail this Sunday, such as the Hull FC v Catalans Dragons Rugby League game and Liverpool v Everton Premier League match, is advised to seek alternative transport.

Kathryn O’Brien, Customer Experience Director for TransPennine Express said: “Action by RMT continues to cause disruption to our customers’ journeys.

“With a further strike planned for this Sunday, we are once again advising those customers to travel either side of Sunday as we will only be running a limited service on two of our routes, with no TPE trains at all on the West Coast Mainline.”

Further strikes by RMT are planned to take place on Sundays up to and including June 5, and on the following full weekends: 

  • Saturday, April 30 and Sunday, May 1
  • Saturday, June 4 and Sunday, June 5

Ticket acceptance is in place with Northern, Avanti West Coast (between Wigan and Carlisle), CrossCountry (between Leeds and Edinburgh), East Midlands Railway, Lumo, LNER (between York and Edinburgh), ScotRail, Hull Trains (between Hull and Doncaster) and Transport for Wales services.
