Extra train strikes planned over Christmas
Nigel Goddard says he will not be able to see his son and granddaughter over Christmas
"We have three possible days that we can meet up for Christmas lunch but there are strikes on all three of the days," he told the BBC. These include repurposing or closing ticket offices, with staff having new "multi-skilled" roles and Sunday working where it is not in place already. Other proposals by the RDG to "secure the future of the industry" included drivers operating the train doors in more areas, although it insists guards would still be on board.'Compelled to take action'
