We want to hear from staff and passengers who are affected by strikes by West Midlands Railway and South Western Railway in November and December

West Midlands Railway faced its second strike by workers on Saturday, with further action planned over the next few weeks. There has not been a resolution between the RMT and Abellio, the company who runs the network, over the role of guards, driver-only operated trains and the impact on passenger safety.

Also, after talks to resolve the long-running dispute over the future role of guards on trains broke down between South Western Railway and the RMT, a month of strikes is due to take place. From 2 December services will be reduced apart from election day on 12 December and 25 and 26 December.

We want to hear views from passengers on the strikes and how it will affect you in detail. How will it impact your travel plans, especially leading up to Christmas? Do you agree or disagree with the strikes and why? If you’re a member of staff, we’d like to hear your your views about planned strike action too.
