Listen on

Episode notes

Around 16 million journeys could be affected by what is expected to be the worst week of rail disruption for 30 years. 

About 40,000 members of the RMT at Network Rail and 14 train operators are staging a 48-hour walkout, with another to follow on Friday, while drivers in the Aslef union will strike on Thursday.

Ross Lydall, the Evening Standard’s City Hall Editor & Transport Editor, explains the latest on the industrial action, what’s next for the talks and whether this means Londoners could be put off taking the train moving forward.
