Date: 21/05/2018
Rail disruption is continuing on a day dubbed 'Meltdown Monday' by unions after new timetables were introduced. Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR) rescheduled every service on its Great Northern, Thameslink and Southern franchise as part of an overhaul billed as the biggest in the UK. The operator apologised after it cancelled dozens of trains, hours after its new timetable began on Sunday. It confirmed disruption was continuing on Monday. Passengers in the north of England are also reporting delays and cancellations as rail routes covered by Northern, which operates services from Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield and Newcastle, saw train times and stopping patterns change from Sunday.
