Southern Rail says the strikes yesterday were pointless as, “over 99% of affected conductors have now signed up to the new role.”

The RMT however, says it wants the government to ‘force’ the operator “back to the negotiating table instead of just jamming their heads in the sand”.

62% of trains were running on Tuesday – Action which has been described by the Union as ‘rock solid and determined’.
