  • On all five days trains will start later and finish much earlier than usual, between 7.30am and 6.30pm   
  • Passengers who must travel should expect disruption, plan ahead and check when their last train will depart 
  • The RMT leadership have also imposed an overtime ban across 14 train operators  until 2 January, which may lead to short-notice cancellations with wide regional variations over the next few days.
