Rail strike talks to start again tomorrow ahead of planned Bank Holiday action
TALKS between rail union RMT and First Great Western (FGW) will resume tomorrow as an agreement is yet to be reached ahead of planned strikes.
Rail workers are set to strike on Sunday, August 23, and Saturday, August 29, to Monday, August 31, over changes to services.
The dispute is over FGW plans to introduce Hitachi Inter City trains, which the union is concerned could threaten jobs such as platform staff and guards.
