A warning has gone out to rail passengers – Christmas Eve travel will be severely curtailed this year.

RMT strike action planned for 24 December will have a severe impact on rail services with passengers being advised to only travel if absolutely necessary.

On Christmas Eve, trains will stop much earlier.

Paul Rutter, East Coast route director for Network Rail said: “We’re really sorry for the disruption this will cause over the Christmas period when people are travelling to see family and friends.

“This latest round of strike action means that we’re asking passengers to only travel if it’s absolutely necessary on days and to expect some significant disruption.

“With important engineering work also taking place into the New Year, passengers should continue to check their journey throughout the festive period.”
