A skeleton service timetable which will operate on Wednesday 27th July has been released by Northern.

They have also issued a Do Not Travel notice for the Strikes as the majority of trains will not run.

The timetable consists of hourly services between 07:30 and 18:30 from:

to Sheffield via Wakefield Westgate
Leeds to via Micklefield
Leeds to Bradford Forster Square
Leeds to Skipton
Leeds to Ilkley
Ilkley to Bradford Forster Square
Skipton to Bradford Forster Square
Darlington to Saltburn
to via Chat Moss, Manchester Piccadilly and Manchester Airport

For additional information, customers should visit northernrailway.co.uk/strikes for continued updates on the strikes.

Tricia Williams, chief operating officer at Northern, said: “We’ve taken on board learnings from the previous RMT strikes last month and have done everything we can to offer a skeleton service on the parts of our network where we’re able to – but our advice remains not to travel.

“The timetable we have put in place has been agreed with Network Rail, who have had to consider the requirements of other train operators and freight services on the network.

“We apologise in advance for the disruption and inconvenience that the RMT’s industrial action will cause. Services are also likely to be disrupted on Thursday, 28 July given the impact of the strike on fleet displacement across our 550-station network. Customers should check online before they travel.

“We continue to be keen to speak to the RMT to find a resolution and avoid any future strikes.”
