Date: 09/03/2017
Northern has announced that it will only be able to run 40% of its usual schedule when union RMT go on strike on 13 March operating approximately 980 services across many, but not all of its routes in the north.
The operator warned passengers to leave plenty of time for journeys and to consider if their journey was necessary before travelling, in anticipation of services being very busy as the TOC battles with staff shortages.
Northern has also explained that more than 100 trained managers and colleagues will be carrying out conductor duties to keep services moving as regularly and quickly as possible.
