Train passengers urged not to travel over Easter due to strike action

People planning to travel by train over Easter are warned strike action is set to cause significant disruption.

Passengers are urged not to travel on TransPennine Express services on Easter Saturday and Easter Sunday as industrial action by members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union is set to take place, with only a very small number of trains in operation.

The union has also announced a series of further strikes by conductors, with action now planned to take place on Sundays until June 5 and on the following weekends: April 16 and 17, Saturday April 30 and Sunday May 1 and Saturday June 4 and Sunday June 5.

Any trains that do operate busier than usual, TransPennine Express said and anyone making an essential journey should allow plenty of extra time to travel.

Bikes will not be permitted on board TransPennine Express services on any of the strike dates.

Kathryn O’Brien, customer experience director for TransPennine Express, said: “We are saddened that strike action is set to cause further disruption to trains over the Easter weekend, at a time when people will be relying on our services to allow them to catch up with friends or family.

“Unfortunately, we are instead urging customers to avoid travelling on both Easter Saturday and Easter Sunday, and instead make their journeys either side of the strike dates.”
