Today marks the start of two 48-hour strikes.

Rail workers are pressing ahead with strike action in Glasgow with union bosses saying they"don't see a deal in sight".

But with further walkouts planned, Network Rail has warned there will be significantly reduced services, with trains more crowded and likely to start later and finish earlier until January 8. But Transport Secretary Mark Harper said “almost 40%” of RMT members at Network Rail voted in favour of an offer to resolve the dispute despite “a very clear instruction from their union leadership”.
