Some parts of the network will have no WMR or LNR trains, including stations between:

• Wolverhampton and Shrewsbury

• Whitlocks End and Stratford-upon-Avon
• Stratford-upon-Avon and Dorridge
• Dorridge and Leamington Spa
• Walsall and Rugeley Trent Valley
• Rugby and Crewe via Nuneaton and Rugeley Trent Valley
• Crewe and Stafford via Stoke-on-Trent

Tickets for travel this Saturday may be used on Friday 15 November or Sunday 17 November or passengers can receive a full refund.

For those who do travel, WMR or LNR tickets will be accepted on NX Bus and Metro services.

Further industrial action is scheduled to take place each Saturday until the end of December.
