A railway company has issued a travel warning ahead of a strike day next week as members from union Aslef and RMT walk out over an ongoing pay dispute between railway workers and the government.

CrossCountry said there will be no train services in Leeds on Friday (May 12) as it specifically affects train drivers working for the company. The strikes will also affect other train operating companies and their services across the country, the firm said.
