The action, organised by the Aslef union, is expected to shut down the majority of the country's rail network
When doctors are on strike this week and how the NHS will be affected by the action
Aslef said the action would “force the train operating companies to cancel all services and the ban on overtime will seriously disrupt the network”. Talks between Aslef and the RDG have stalled since the union rejected the RDG’s most recent proposal. The RDG said: “The rail industry is working hard to keep trains running despite the union leaders’ decision to reject an offer which would give their members an 8 per cent pay rise over two years, taking average salaries for train drivers up from nearly £60,000 a year to almost £65,000 a year for, on average, a four-day week.”
He said: “An average salary of a train driver today is £60,000 for a 35-hour, four-day week. The pay offer that is on the table, if it was accepted, would take that to a £65,000 a year salary for a four-day, 35-hour week – I think most people would think that is quite reasonable.”
