Rail Delivery Group responds to further six month strike extension by RMT members

A spokesperson for the Rail Delivery Group, said: “We want to resolve this dispute and are acutely aware of the damaging impact it's having on our passengers, our people and the many businesses up and down the country who rely on rail.   

"We call on the RMT executive to bring an end to this dispute and put the deal - which offers job security guarantees and a pay rise of up to 13% to the lowest paid workers - to its members so we can end the uncertainty and move forward with delivering a better railway for our customers."
