Date published: 30 January 2023


Northern will not operate any trains on Wednesday 1 or Friday 3 February, as a result of ASLEF & RMT strike action.

The rail operator says some services will be affected on Thursday 2 and Saturday 4 February and to check journey planners for these days.

Northern says: “If you do decide to travel, there will be very limited services running across the whole rail network so remember to check your entire journey as other train service providers may be affected.”
